Cajun Field Construction

Demo and Reno can be part of the same process.

Absplutely; the Demo is one of the first stages of the Reno.

Thank you for that info. Cost aside- this should be a nice upgrade to allow better seat spacing

Just seems that the new South End Zone is perfect and we can easily incorporate the two older sidelines into it. Maybe I’m not reading it right, but it seems we’re redoing the entire stadium now.

Yes, that is what it seems to be.

Yes, that is what it seems to be.

They are not doing anything to the south endzone. They are changing the slope and getting everything up to code on the west side first then the east side. Once done all the slopes and seating will look like the SEZ except the new chair back seats.

That makes sense

Damn so we pretty much getting a whole new stadium…

Yes, that’s what it seams to be. Lol

I thought that was understood. Of course the South end zone will not be touched. I didn’t read Express’s post clearly.

Hoping the chairbacks are more Russo Park sized than Cajundome reno sized.

A few questions if these can be answered now:

1. What is being done with the NEZ? Will it be bowled, have more symmetrical balance with the stadium or remain untouched? If it remains a grassy area, would they put artificial turf to give it a better look?
2. What about the athletic offices, restaurant, etc. that were to be added to the stadium, presumably behind the press box? When will current offices be demolished?
3. Are there still plans to build a quad where the current offices are, once removed, perhaps a mini-version of the on-campus quad with the FDL?
4. Will there be a new facade around the stadium?
5. Are there plans for a new mega-scoreboard?
6. Will there be new turf?
7. Are there plans to do anything with landscaping around the stadium and replacing the old, cracking cement walkways and parking that give it an old, worn-out look? For that matter, how about some landscaping around the whole athletic complex?

Can anyone provide answers?
