Saw this image on Twitter. Shows a lot more of the West side of the building.

Uh, everything?


While registering my vehicles the assessor stated "I have had both Cat and Griz students and alums work for me and the Griz end up working under the direction of the Cats."

Not if you have been trying to keep a photo log of the construction.

Friday, if the camera doesn't go down again. 200 days of construction. There hasn't been a whole lot of change on the southside since the 150 day video though.

I know the EZ seating isn't supposed to happen until after an indoor practice facility, which is probably a ways away, but does anyone know what the design is supposed to be for it? The base needs to be about four feet off the ground, so I'm guessing it would run up to the top of the new facility. I doubt they would have it abut the facility considering all the windows there, so would it sit out a ways to allow for a pathway between the seating and the facility?

One of the designers of the BAC was on here a while back and mentioned that the current walkway will extend all the way around the stadium. He wrote that the walkway will be come in just under the BAC windows and they won't be covered up. So, the North end zone seating will probably look similar to the student section in the South end zone

Maybe something similar to this with the walkway up near the bottom of the windows.

There would be a tunnel coming out under the scoreboard too.

That would be great. Maybe 8-10 rows or so. Wouldn’t necessarily add a ton of capacity, but it sure would add to the overall feel of the stadium and to the game day atmosphere having fans that close to the field on all 4 sides.

No idea if they’ll do it, but I’d love to see an updated plan/artist rendering of both the stadium and the rest of the athletic facilities after the BAC is completed. Basically the same thing they did for the big 20 year plan, just an updated 15 year plan.see what may have changed or what the next thing is, etc.

Here is the 200 construction day update. I may not update this again until August since there are only around 70 construction days left until the facility is scheduled to open.

Thanks for doing the project. It'd be a lot of work and I don't expect you to do it, but it'd be really cool if you put the date of the picture in the corner every so many pictures or something. Just food for thought. Thanks again though!
