DWS Expansion (maybe Germans)

I'm at work and my computer here loads SPS agonizingly slow, so I didn't go searching to see if these particular pics had been posted yet.

Any idea what the structures depicted in the West Side cut-away in the second picture are going to be?

The NEZ looks GOOD.

 

[MaroonInNashville]

But I'll ask...

 

[Count Istvan Teleky]

Hope so, anyway

They will be built in the area where the tv production trailers were before. We are moving the tv trucks outside the stadium close to Barnes and noble. I believe the costs of the new tv production area is over 1 million if I'm not mistaken

Or is it all premium seating?

...Those are all new restrooms and concessions. Going to be a huge upgrade under the west side.

 

[Dawgbite]

Or at least put a beer stand half way up those ramps. If you ever have too much to drink, just walk up those ramps and you'll be sober by the time you reach the 3rd deck!

No way to link it, but I'll try to take some screen shots. That or I can have a full set shipped to you. All 7 volumes consisting of 1,400 pages of drawings for the bargain price of $1,250.00. ....One set.

That would be a terrible move....

Might be the same but oh well. I should have rotated them but oh well.<div>

Can you tell us the height of the new Dawgzillatron over those renderings(allowing us to approximate the overall size)? Not enough clarity for me to be able to zoom and see it. It certainly appears to be larger than the existing one, but it may be an optical illusion. Will be interesting to know how it compares..

 

[DirtyLopez]

If it is bigger than the current TV, all I can say is damn.

We could save a million dollars by just having the tv production in the new bathrooms.

So soon?

 

[engie]

to play in stereo with the existing one. In these pictures and others, it appears the new one may actually be bigger than the first.

 

[Scarface10]

the new board is bigger than the current Dawgzillatron. I think that would be awesome. I'm pumped about the expansion. Does anyone know how many and where the new club level seats will be located?

 

[jb1020]

I'd let the students sit in the corner, but those seats behind the goal post look to be pretty nice seats. You don't spend $80mill then let that be the cheapest seating part of the stadium.

I'd pay a little more to sit high up in the new endzone. There has to be more leg room and faster access to much nicer restrooms. Plus a straight on view of the video board.

 

[FlabLoser]

Its only going to look awkward from arial views which few people are ever going to see.

My main wish now is that the new facade (the brick and other trim that is similar in style to the new Union building and McCool Hall renovation) was wrapped the whole stadium. Sure that's not very cheap.

Are they addingan entry "courtyard" to the NE and SW corners like the NW corner will have? The plans appear to show some fencing that is set back away from the bleachers in those corners as though they've moving the gates away from the stadium some.

I think this would be a GREAT idea and would open the possibility of expanding the facade theme to more of the stadium - as was suggested by Flab.
