re: Renderings of expansion from LSU

The renderings released by LSU seem to be preliminary and will probably evolve in the next few months when more engineering work is incorporated into the design. You can see examples of how designs of the baseball and softball stadiums evolved from concept to finished product below for an example of what I am talking about:

Baseball rendering released around August 2006


Baseball rendering released around December 2006 (notice they raised the suites/press box another level and the stairs were moved inwards)


Baseball construction started June 2007


Baseball stadium as built




Softball rendering early release


Softball rendering later release (notice the area below the roof at the back of the stadium)


Softball stadium as built (notice the roof is no longer a cantilever design but is more a suspension design)
