It's been almost a year since the New York Islanders played at Nassau Coliseum, and here are photos of what the "abandoned" arena looks like in present day.
On Friday, the Nassau Coliseum turns 50 years-old. Every major musician from Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra and Paul McCartney, to Led Zepplin, Pink Floyd, U2, Matallica, Billy Joel and some form of the Grateful Dead 44 different times, targeted a concert run at the Nassau Coliseum. It's an intimate venue to play with 14,000 of your best friends.
The the boards have been built, the ice is nice, and the Isles were all smiles as they took the ice at the brand-new UBS Arena. Here are some of our favorite shots.
