re: Renderings of expansion from LSU

and while i'm at it, i'm gonna pimp the design that i did a few weeks back for those who didn't see it...

glad i'm not the only one who has issues with the outside.

here's some problems i have with it Image Link

those arched windows at the top are too short and squatty looking. i also hate the enormous flat surface above them. And the corner where it meets the west deck looks to disjointed.

VERY same concerns. the top is silly looking. it's a poor imitation of the original. here are the two end zones side-by-side. concession stands stick out at the top. the glassed in ramp makes absolutely zero sense.

ETA: I don't come on here to complain. I actually like the recent additions unlike a lot of other people. And I was happy that there would be arches in the new design. However, the arches aren't real arches nor do they make sense with the extra 20 feet of building above it.

In one of the renderings, the arches look much better. They are bordered by parapet walls on either side instead of between every 2nd arch.

There are two different designs. Only one looks good even though both have the stupid glass atrium.

The one with the people drawn in looks stupid.




For the record, I'm in the camp that thinks the east and west upper decks both look stupid because of their lack of design continunity with the older lower decks that they covered up.
