I'm sure they'll put up windows to match eventually. Couldn't imagine it's a high priority though.

I guess some people can look at that job and be satisfied.

But if I'm spending $80 million on something, I'm going to spend an extra 12k to fill in all the windows.

Overall the project looks great.

But there are several WTF parts of this project that will piss me off until they are fixed.

I don't mind the stairs but I would like them to put windows over the cinder blocks.

seems like they could have at least made the stairs and frames black so it is less noticeable, but who knows what goes through the minds of the decision makers. I think most people will notice the giant white wall of nothing that is next to it first anyway.

I love the addition overall, but 100% agree that that part needs some work and looks bad as is with exposed stairs and the cinderblock-ed windows.

Above that, looks great!..., bottom two window rows, awful.

No reasonable person could thing the exposed stairs looks good ...just looks "unfinished" when compared to the rest of the south exterior...I don't have the solution, but someone smarter than me that does this stuff for a living most certainly can come up with a more aesthetically pleasing something that doesn't give a beautiful addition a WTF eye sore

Other spots that need work:
-white wall of Baton Rouge
-Lego Blocks inside need some work to blend in better and not look like blocks sitting on top of a beautiful interior addition

On a positive note, those 3 things aside, everything else looks great.

Unless you're a visiting fan or really poor, you won't be going in that side of the stadium.

So who gives a shite?
