The pictures in the OP are a mix of the South Upper construction and the North endzone project.

It's all because Les won't give over control of the the construction plans to the Site Coordinator. He' just to stubborn/egotistical etc.
And if you think anything else you're a sunshine pumper that doesn't know crap. My cousin's uncle's neighbor's barber has an inside contact in the Athletic Department.

Can people really not tell the difference between the north and south endzones?

Im so glad LSU went through the trouble of wasting donation money replacing windows in the existing stadium just in time for them to be covered up by the new construction.


The expansion covering up the exterior of the stadium is on the complete opposite side.


Also, anyone know what's going on in this picture?

Looks like SEZ expansion foundation.

ETA: I'm guessing you want more technical details? My bad.

Footing for something really big. They were also digging a giant hole in the middle of everything today.

is the tailgating deck actually going to happen? if so that's going to be legit. how would you get up there and would it be a top dollar donor only deck?

I don't know about the tailgate thing. I know it was in the first renderings that came out but you never know what the finished product will be when it comes to LSU

Yeah.

I was mainly referring to the container-like thing within the hole.


ETA: FWIW, I (obviously) know absolutely nothing about construction.

Seriously?! At this f*^&ing point you think they are just winging it? Or do you think maybe it will all come together when the entire project is finished?

They know what the hell they are doing!

So, they spent all of that money replacing the windows just to cover them up with a new section in the SEZ?
