Where is Walker Arena and what is it?
Walker Arena is Clarkson’s old hockey arena. It’s located across Clarkson Ave. from the Pit. Currently it has some pretty horrendous astroturf installed, and is generally used for storing the University’s junk as well as intramural sports. Due to its wooden structure and “cozy” atmosphere, it was one of the most imposing arenas in college hockey. Today Walker is best known for being an overflow parking lot that has a Campus Safety vehicle running in idle at all times, though renovations are in the works.
