actually i just looked at the artist renderings for the champions plaza and i dont see anything similarity to the faux brick.

We should scatter visiting teams fans all over the place like they do at Florida

What rendering are you looking at cause I just looked at the drawings and it looks very similar to the existing West facade?

i think he got the wrong carolina school.... something like the west endzone project at clemson is what we need

Right. The cmu at the bottom of the piers will match the West facade and the panels will be a similar color and have the look due to the jointing.
ETA: The West facade is cmu, not bricks like the rendering shows.

quote:considering that this likely will be the last feasible expansion to Tiger Stadium, I agree. I think they should do what they can to squeeze at least one more seat in than is in Bryant-Denny. :
The reason why they are doing it is for the suites and club seats

Keep in mind with the student section being in the corner, they will be aimed straight at one of those gaps if they exist.
What do you think happens with the noise that they generate now??? It's not like when the build the south expansion that the "hole" that's left between the two sections will somehow like a magnent drain more noise out then what is created now.

Yeah, the rendering material for the West facade is not accurate.

Even more so on the ground. But I'm talking about how on most cmu walls the blocks are offset so the joints between them zig-zag up/down the wall. With the joints being continuous horizontally as well as vertically the blocks look like panels.
But definitely once all of the champions plaza/walk work is done next year it will look like the sidewalks and facade go together.

are the windows going to be replaced on the east and west sidelines? just curious...
Posted on 2/28/12 at 5:08 pm to Daigeaux
Yes, the plan is to replace all the old windows. Even on the inside of the stadium.

thats great because it makes a huge difference...

I think the plans sound great. There is no need to add additional seating other than to remove those prime seats for opposing fans and place them up in the rafters and give some rantards that complain about prices a place to sit.
Maybe someone on the SECr or someone has looked this up already, but where would this place us among the SEC regarding the # of suites and stadium club seats?

I wonder if they're gonna have to cut down any of those oak trees along South Stadium Drive in order to fit the addition. That would suck
Posted on 2/28/12 at 9:06 pm to TigerMeister
It will never be done in time.
Posted on 2/28/12 at 9:08 pm to TigerMeister
You can bank they wont touch the Oaks. They guard those things with their lives...
