last I heard was first week in July 07. They are currently redoing the fencing in part of the stadium with brick colunms and wrought iron. Also working on where the old restrooms were in the south endzone area to make a concessions area. .

Starting to remind me of JMU's plans to expand to 50K...... in 25 years.

Starting to remind me of JMU's plans to expand to 50K...... in 25 years.

In a recent article AD Charlie Cobb said the ultimate goal was to have 30,000 seats in Kidd Brewer Stadium. He also indicated they were leaning towards decking the East Grandstands like shown in the initial expansion plans a few years back (minus the towers). Although I still hold out hope a location can be found to relocate the track, he also spoke of building seats in the endzones which allow the track to pass underneath.

So who donated the money to build that? Cause we can't get anything done at UMass

We are actually in the fund raising stage to complete the project. Student fees and some major donors are footing the bill for the new athletic center and other site improvements.

So the stadium entrance is now on top of the huge hill behind the stadium? do they expect everyone to walk all the way up there?

[SoCon48]

All these renderings and no start kind of remind me of the eBayer who advertised the 32 inch TV. It said "32 inch Color TV. Great Picture." He sold hundreds. He just sent them a "picture."
Got caught and thrown the book at.

No thats for the high dollar skybox/pressbox people and staff. Us regular folks will still have our own personal entrance.

Those other people will even have their own parking area on the hill.

A new entrance plaza is to be built where the new ticket facility is and the main gates will eventually be located between Owens Field House and the East Grandstands (where those two towers are in the picture I posted). Don't know exactly the plan to disperse folks to the different grandstands, but believe we'll begin to be able to get an idea of how that will work out as the new columns and fencing goes up inside the stadium.

I think the idea is to let the high rollers be able to enter without having to mingle with the great unwashed. :)
