Student Union Construction.

Developing? Seems like you have a development plan already in place before you demolish, then start the development immediately thereafter.

I think one of the big issues they had was that there weren't any documents/blueprints about the guillory hall overlook, its relation to the lake and what it would look like and it's condition would be after the demo, etc. I think they have most of the layout for the new green space, etc., done and now will need to incorporate the new stage/overlook into those plans.

They wanted to see sight lines after demolition. They also wanted to see the condition and outline of the balcony after demolition. I suspect they have a pretty good idea what they want to do. All they have to do is get final placement and design to a budget.

Ha! I just said the same thing...guess we were posting at the same time.

To be fair, this quote is from before the buildings were demolished. It says "where the buildings now stand"

Yes, good point.....I should have made that clearer. I was curious what the 'official' word was on the green space, and had found that on article on the main website from when the construction on the union was still being done.

That old student government sign would be sweet painted, distressed and sealed.. and hung in my game room. Don't throw it out!

---I use to be pretty good at taking stuff from the cafeteria and veggies from the farm by the Blackham Col---but this is close to the heat!!! You want to try???

They have installed a new lighting system in the quad.

Kind of looks like a similar system to what they added to the new FDL fountain in the quad. Very nice.

I guess they are hoping to get more people due to the first Football game.
