Construction Cam APC ( Athletic Performance Complex )

[HelmutVII]

I don't know what the interior will be like, but the exterior seems to be a blend of the IPF and the End Zone expansion so it all fits together. Presumably, the completed stadium will fit that look too. We haven't seen the completion of the entrance yet, which will make a huge difference in the final appearance. And sitting next to the current athletic building doesn't help. When that is torn down and an athletic quadrangle is built, this will have a totally different look.

This.

The camera does not do it justice. Lets see what it looks like when it's finished. As long as the guts of the building is there then the fluff can be changed, improved, modified later. Remember, never say "I want" without being willing and able to also say "and am willing to pay for".

Exactly. Cause I'm pretty sure there ain't $8million just hanging around. Just like with the Tigue upgrades. So many are throwing around how we should be doing so much more than what they think is planned...but none have any names of people willing to pay for it.

I agree: it's not the style some people are comfortable with, but it works well within the complex. And will look great when it's completed, the cox bldg is gone and there is a new green space in its place.

Any interior APC pics yet? I know we have some military people that during hours that the APC is open could walk in blend and snap shots! 😜. Helmut, Frenchy, Boomer, Hammer, Turbine, heck anybody?😳

I am going today and give it a try. I will ware one of my military caps and see if that helps. Will have to wait until the threat of rain and lighting ends.......

Farmer says, Quote. "A public fundraising campaign doesn’t have a definitive start date, but Farmer said it will likely commence at some point in late summer or mid-fall"......Why in the hell do we have to wait. Is there a season for fundraising? Only can do it in late summer or mid fall. Give me a break. My wife don't wait for her funds. 365 days a year she puts out her hand. And I don't say, "wait till mid fall baby"........

It's a facility built for a water hose boy. Lets face it, we don't have the money to build a palace like the P5 boys have. But this is 10x better than what we had and will be better than what most G5 schools have. Rome wasn't built in a day.

I know everyone crapped on me for complaining about spending money on the end zone expansion, but this is why. An extra $8,000,000 would have gone a long way toward making that APC a truly first class facility.

I seem to remember that without the end zone you can start on the sideline work.

The endzone was a must because you need to have a spot for your fans with upper deck tickets to sit while the upper deck work is being done

Maybe because ALL fundraising will fall under the new RCAF Director and we want to get that position filled first. Applications are all in. Now the selection process. Should have someone in place by Sept. 1, I would hope.
