MSU Campus & Starkville Picture Thread - 2018 Edition

[pDigital32Dawg]

I spent some time this weekend capturing photos around Starkville and MSU's campus. I'll post a subset of those in this thread along with a link to the album. If there are any special requests, I can work on getting more photos at a later time.

Starkville

Mugshots' old location is for rent

Starkville Community Market (every Tuesday and Saturday) at the Fire Station Park

Is Cappe's for sale?

Stromboli's tore down the old gas station looking building. I'm not familiar with what their future plans are for the space.

Anyone have any ideas or drawings of what the new two brothers is going to be like? I’ve heard it’s going to be 2 story with lots of patio seating. Two brothers is probably my favorite place to eat in Starkville currently so I am very excited about that.

Also, any idea what’s going in where the current two brothers is?

Nice pics man, thanks! Think you could get some of midtown?

Starkville - New Construction

Construction site next door to City Bagel. Used to be a house

Construction site across from Bulldog Burger Company. I believe it will be mixed use between retail and housing. Parking at BBC is awful now. Same can be said for the Cotton District in general.

Another Dan Camp project near City Bagel

Construction site in downtown off of Main street. I believe this is the future home of Strangebrew's second location. Orange Theory will have a space in there as well. I haven't heard of anything else using these buildings yet.

I do not know what this site is, but it is off of Highway 12 near the Hilton

 

[pDigital32Dawg]

I'm still posting. Unfortunately I am working on a single monitor, which makes a slow process much slower

Strombolis is working on putting in a large patio area in place of the torn down buildings

MSU Campus - New Construction

Partnership School - Located near the North entrance (Highway 182 side) of campus where Chadwick lake is

Old Aiken Village site

(the site can be seen in the background)

South Side of campus where the Vet school is

Renovated YMCA building (the road is finally open as well)

Walkway connecting Old Main to the YMCA building

I'm signing out for now. I'll probably add onto this thread either later today or sometime this week.

 

[L4Dawg]

Good stuff!

 

[dickiedawg]

Cappe's has moved to the research park where Cake Box was.

 

[Bully13]

Greatly appreciated those pics.

 

[snoopdog]

The Hump and McCarthur need facelifts

on that side of campus. Great pics by the way.

 

[dawgdoug1962]

Man! I am blown away by what you have done! A heartfelt thanks from a member of the class of '62. My last time on the campus was 2013 and it was an amazing day to see the campus changes. Two life-long buddies...also MSU grads...brought me back on my 73rd birthday...quite a 'gift'.

 

[RocketDawg]

What kind of drone do you have?

 

[MaroonCrusader]

Wow. I graduated in 2010. You’d think they struck oil in Starkville since then!

 

[BossDawg78]

Good Lord we've come a long way from the Templeton days.

 

[The Usual Suspect]

Dorman and McArthur need changes. In these pics McArthur looks worse than Dorman.

 

[BossDawg78]

Wow. I graduated in 2010. You’d think they struck oil in Starkville since then!

No $#!t. I graduated in '11. It's almost unrecognizable from then until now.

 

[Drebin]

No $#!t. I graduated in '11. It's almost unrecognizable from then until now.

You kids. In 2011 I was blown away by how great it looked compared to 1989.

It's amazing how far we've come.

 

[Arthur2478]

I just wanted to say thank you for doing this. It is very appreciated.

Thanks!

 

[Wizard.sixpack]

Ahhh the hwy 12 [h=1]monstrosity....That has to be one of the biggest blunders since malfunction junction.[/h]

 

[Junction John]

Damn right. Eckie's Pond was probably the most 'scenic' place on campus.

You kids. In 2011 I was blown away by how great it looked compared to 1989.

It's amazing how far we've come.

I do have fond memories of that place, but not because it was pretty...

The campus shows very well now. These pics are incredible.

 

[DowntownFrazier]

Wow, thanks for posting.

I do wish they'd gentrify the downtown area better. The Tokros/Level III area would look much better with a New Orleans feel.

 

[NWADawg]

If I'm looking at these pictures right( awesome pics by the way), Evans Hall was destroyed and replaced. When did that happen? I try to make it back to campus every other year or so. I obviously didn't spend enough time touring campus.

 

[Nash.sixpack]

They fixed up Eckie's pond recently, it'd be great to see some pics of that if you get a chance. These are all great btw

 

[VegasDawg13]

Don't feel bad. I live here and had no idea the gas station by Stromboli's had been demolished.

 

[coach66]

Great job, as I said a few weeks ago we are entering a Golden Era for MSU

sports and it also appears for economic development as well. Great times in Starkvegas on the horizon.

 

[Go Budaw]

Boy, Dickey’s sure didn’t make it very long. ****** chain BBQ place in an old shopping center located practically spitting distance from Lil Dooey and right down the road from Two Brothers....nobody could have seen that coming***

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

I was part of the renovation in 2011. It’s beautiful now

 

[MSUDC11]

If I'm looking at these pictures right( awesome pics by the way), Evans Hall was destroyed and replaced. When did that happen? I try to make it back to campus every other year or so. I obviously didn't spend enough time touring campus.

They tore down Evans about two years ago and replaced it with two brand new suite style dorms.

 

[MSUDC11]

Also of note, George Perry Street (runs between the YMCA building and the Chapel and starts in front of the Union) will be completely open for the first time in about 5 years. Don’t know how much that changes game day traffic, if any, but it will sure help make that part of campus a lot less cluttered during regular days of operation.
