Thread: 2017 Enrollment

    Similarly, I am not even close to being "in the know" regarding all of the issues associated with the needed demo of the "Cox Communication Athiletic Complex."
    With these qualifiers:
    1. I would presume that Cox Communication pays sponsorship fees/ naming rights to call the Athletic Complex the "Cox Communication" Athletic Complex. Is this accurate?
    2. If so, I would again presume that Cox Communication would have an interest in the image/public sentiment/style/image of a building that has their name on it.
    3. Therefore, it would certainly appear that Cox Communication would (or should) have an opinion as to how they want their brand and name portrayed on our campus.
    4. Does anyone on this board know whether Cox Communication has been contacted to address the eyesore that has their name on it, what they could do to help the situation, and whether they are willing and able to "fix" the issue?
    5. Seems like we could work with Cox Communication to have them pay for the demo AND to either pay to replace the building or build something that more respectfully and more appropriately represents their brand.
    I’d think that the value received from Cox building is an annual thing. IMO the promotional value would never approach a significant add on, or even the full cost of demolishing this structure.

    Bottom line: Almost everyone agrees the "Cox Building" is an eyesore. If I owned Cox, I would not want my brand to be associated with such a structure and would work to make the situation better (whatever that means).

    I did a quick google search, and think this is what you are asking about:

    BTW, spending this kind of money on these undeserving jucos has just got to be stopped.

    I don't think any other building would have hypnotised me like that one did.
    Sorry to dig up an old thread, but came across some pics of the planetarium on FB from back in the day, when it looked grand indeed. And it seems we aren't the only ones extremely sad to see what it has become, and that it will be demolished soon. (They also had some current pics of it, but I couldn't make myself post them, lol)

    I used to go to the echo chamber back there when I was a freshman in the dorms. It was close secluded and better than parking

    It is sad to see what it has become.

    Yup. Flashy design, ____ poor thought process. Big rains, the water just rolled right in the front door. Contract signed around Thanksgiving to demolish.

    An attempt was made by a few to save it after the bid was accepted by LCG council. A few tried to raise money and put a plan together in the window between council acceptance and deadline for Mayor-President to sign or veto. Could not pull it off.

    Just like Blackham & its cow stables it needs to be torn down and utilized in a way to generate capital

    Cutting to the chase, Ryan Street High is getting a new gym the Huey Long way.
