Crisler Center was designed by Dan Dworsky, a member of the 1948 Rose Bowl-winning Michigan football team.

Among other structures that he has designed is the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, Los Angeles Branch.

[1][2] At Michigan men's basketball games, the bleacher seats behind the benches are home to the Maize Rage student section.

[3] The arena has also hosted concerts, including the opening show of Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band's The River Tour.

[6] A new scoreboard was added along with the construction of an athletic facility in between the arena and Michigan Stadium called the Junge Family Champions Center.

A new grand entrance along with new boxes were expected to be ready by January 2013, but were completed just before the start of the 2012–13 Basketball season, much earlier than originally planned.

[7] Part of the Crisler renovation also included the construction of the William Davidson Player Development Center (WDPDC).
