"surely they wont leave the ugly arse lego block up there"


The LEGO blocks are a temporary solution so that the bathrooms will be functional for this season. The stadium was put way behind schedule due to some soil conditions that differed materially from those on the plans. They had to drive more and deeper piles than initially planned, plus there were tons of utilities present that were not on any of their maps.

They basically ran out of time to finish the bathrooms because of this, so they threw up the LEGO blocks so that they would at least be functional. During the offseason, that part of the addition will be finished, aka no more lego blocks.

Since you seem to be in the know, wasn't the TAF building facade supposed to be all glass?

Those structures are in every rendering. What do they plan to do to fix them now?
