Do you have a source for that information?

It's interesting watching the window installers work. They have already installed as many panes of glass this morning as they did all of yesterday. I guess it being a Friday is good motivation.

I was noticing that this morning too. Yesterday I was thinking it'd take another week to install all the glass on that side, now they're pretty much done.

I do have a lot of respect for these guys. It couldn't have been all that easy trying to hold on to that big pane of glass the other day when it was really windy. Balancing the glass on that lift and trying to place it in position all the while it's catching those gusts of wind.

It's starting to appear like the second floor will look like the second rendering rather that the picture frame style in the first rendering.

Did they already bust a window or was that pane not installed?

Two panes, upper and lower, not installed.

Has there been any official announcement on the planned completion of the BAC? I know initially it was June 2021 but that was pushed back (due to covid, I presume) to the start of the 2021 season in the Fall but I haven't seen an official date or timeframe.

Just curious, because I was in Bozeman over the weekend and drove by on Kagy - it sure seems like there is quite a long ways to go still. For example the upper level exterior walls still are not up on that corner closest to Kagy.

I haven't heard anything official for a few months but mid-August has always been the date I've been told. I have my doubts about that time frame though. The open gaps in the building you are referring to are for glass.

Leon was still saying Gold Rush as recently as a week or two ago. I expect that to be the official plan until right before or after the Wyoming game when they admit it's not going to happen.


Eastwood, did not make it. Ball out! Recovered, by Montana State!! The Bobcats hold!!! The Bobcats hold!!!

Oh really? good to know about the glass, thanks. It seems like the whole wall in that section wasn't up yet, just sort of an "X" metal frame. But the glass looks big in that rendering so you're probably right.

The top of the big X in the corner.

These great photos were taken a few days ago by Stevo. A lot more exterior concrete work has been finished and the framing in the weight room has been painted. Thanks, Stevo!
