The level the dark blue paint goes up on the walls varies in each rendering. If they go with it all the way up to the ceiling, like in the one you shared, it looks much better. When there's more white on the walls/lower ceiling, it looks more vacant in there.

Interesting to note that they're turning the court 90 degrees and putting seats on all sides, and that the project will be completed between the end of this season and the beginning of the 2024-2025 season.

LaSalle is certainly like minded.  Glad we are in a conference with so many of our peers willing to spend hundreds of dollars to revamp their aged facility.

Season ticket sales may break the 500 mark in the revamped arena.

Where are they putting up the neon and the smoke machine?

There may be some issues.  Wealthy swim team donors are worried about the butterfly stroke sight lines with the new seating configuration.  Hearing they may lose up to a dozen seats to accommodate for the swim team.  Considering that is about a tenth of the total seating capacity it will be a big hit to revenue.
