I've heard from a TAF buddy of mine (informally of course) that the AD and TAF are also looking into the possibility of building suites only around the top of the NEZ.
Ground supports would be built that would not impede the view of the NEZ Roman Colisuem arch design nor the beautiful new NEZ lights and improvements. The outside of the suites would complement it.
There would be no major upheaval of the NEZ street or corridor either.
The scoreboard and video screen would be raised and It would add 2000+ to DV capacity, bringing it to close to 105,000+ total.

My understanding for attempting to seat 99,500 was to avoid falling under the 100k+ building codes, which would require major renovations to meet code.

That could be the reason for not "connecting" the SEZ expansion to the existing structure. They can claim it is a complex holding over 100k, but the single building doesn't. IMHO.
