There's no such that as turning over parts of an arena while finishing others. The legal documents involve the entire building envelope, because much behind the scenes stuff (electrical, HVAC, elevators, staff access) involves more than just the public facing space. It's either an active construction zone, or it isn't, legally.

For a project of this scale, I don't see CSEC risking reputational harm for a rushed opening of secondary spaces. Keep in mind, nothing at the Dome is open 7 days a week, aside from the store. So regular hour restaurants, and everything that comes with that, is likely to open in stages

Is the commercial a different strata? if so, then it's not actually part of the arena and will have it's own utilities that will have their own tie-ins to the city. That's why I say they can be "finished" while the arena itself is under construction still. This is actually pretty common in construction.
 
Either way, if keys are turned over in the Spring, two months ahead of Stampede, we'll essentially be looking at a finished product. I'm sure people will be going up the doors, pulling on them, looking inside, eating their deep-fried Oreos in the public space on the south side of the arena, pissing on the trees as they head home from Nashville North.

In this case there's no "service area" or corridor that would allow them to operate fully independent. Shipping/Receiving, kitchen storage, employee access is all from the event or mezzanine level....so those areas need to be "ready".

The logistics of running a business in a construction site during Stampede would be something for sure. The revenue a business could bring in during Stampede could make it worthwhile to figure out. Are they going to be working on the arena during Stampede or will the site shut down?
