The Tigue is a special place

[HelmutVII]

Helmut, thanks as always for your insight!

Do you think it would be at all possible for parts of the stadium (specifically the bleachers) to be occupied while construction is ongoing? And would it be possible for some of the work like the roof and masonry in certain areas to be halted until after the season is over just so they can get the stadium open?

I doubt that will happen due to liability insurance issues.

And lack of restroom, concessions and basic life safety code facilities.

I feel like they could bring in temporary concessions and restrooms. Hell, before the renovation most of the concessions and restrooms were temporary already, lol.

It is what it is, but it would be really nice if they could work something out.

What Helmut said.....

I think what will happen is that we will start utilizing it once they get occupancy approval for the general stadium seating which includes all the items mentioned previously.

I wouldn't be surprised if the suites are not available for occupancy at all this year. It's easy enough to separate those out from the rest of the facility and move forward.

They have set the perimeter form for the Slab on grade in the area immediately adjacent to the camera. I would suspect that it is set on the section to the left of the project also. They are placing granular base for the slab also.

While i am not familiar with the plans it sounds like this could be a good option.

Placing visqueen vapor barrier this morning look for reinforcing next and concrete not long after that.

The rebar grid is in place for the back half. It looks like they will pour/ place the back half first as the front half is not formed or packed yet.

Either way, "visible" progress will start to speed up

Placing welded wire reinforcing. Might get concrete tomorrow.

Looks like there may be concrete today.
