so based off this if you didnt feel like waiting in the elevator line you couldnt even take the stairs if you wanted to go to the club/suite levels?

is that to prevent people with $35 tickets from trying to get into those levels by using the stairs?

Welp, shows how much I know.

Did some more research and found out they'll be high-speed elevators, so that's pretty cool.

ETA: I hope they're huge elevators. Elevators like these 80-person ones would be awesome.

all 4 stairs access each level. surely the doors to the premium levels from the stairs would be locked, similar to how they are on the west.

yeah, i would think if for no other reason, to meet fire code. There would have to be some stair/ramp access somewhere..

The glass tower is the lobby/elevator area for premium seating levels and back-of-house/admin type areas on the other levels.

Do you know if the side of the lobby building (without the glass) is going to simply be one solid wall?

Since you seem to be so clued-in, if you will, what's your best guess on final capacity?
