A little closer view.......

Re-read the last sentence of Cajun4life's post.

I don't think you could put the weight room into portable buildings.

Yep weights would be crashing through double wide floors left and right.

Move the weight room to the Gym inside the IPF and have basketball practice in Bourgeous Hall again like they use to do.

So we do all of this so we can have an empty area behind the end zone for the start of football season next year as a sign of progress. I guess we can also get some temporary buildings for the visiting football teams as well.

You do realize what's getting built in the south end zone beside seating right?

Are you dense? Or just not paying attention? Either way, visiting locker rooms/concessions/restrooms are going to be constructed along with the seating that is currently going up now.

I thought the lockers room additions were specified as part of phase II. If it's phase I, please remove that comment. It doesn't change the issue with the weight room.

Nope.

Looks like that open area will get bigger and bigger as they move up. Surely there are plans to do something there. Thanks for the pics!!

They will put seating there. They will do that after they reach the top of the stadium with the seating they are installing now. All of the other seating is modular and the forms are consistent. This area is not modular and each row will have to have forms cut to fit. They do not want to do this until they are finished with the forms they are using now. It would slow them up too much.

Why This:




Because of This:

Because the "this" you are seeing is not the end result of why they pulled up the parking. I would suspect that there will be much more happening here. The Blue paint mark on the ground marks a water line that they need to know the location of because they will be digging there to install some more utilities or drainage.

The Basketball wing of the IPF will become the new weight room.

This is perfect because it couldn't hold a regulation basketball court but will make for a huge climate controlled weight room.

I'm just very excited to see the new sections of end zone seats be to this point. It definitely appears that those seats will be ready to host people for the start of the season. Does anyone know what our capacity is supposed to be when those seats are completed? We are going to have record attendance this season. Like huge record attendance.
