I'm sure they'll put up windows to match eventually. Couldn't imagine it's a high priority though.

Holy crap that looks horrible. I don't think the first two levels will have windows. As for the ugly bricked in windows those were part of the plan.

They aren't putting windows in the bottom 2 rows. That's the concourse and closing it up would make it a death trap.

You can see the staircase in this pic too. And the ugly bricked in windows is the elevator shaft. You're acting like LSU just bricked in random windows for no reason.

I guess some people can look at that job and be satisfied.

But if I'm spending $80 million on something, I'm going to spend an extra 12k to fill in all the windows.

Overall the project looks great.

But there are several WTF parts of this project that will piss me off until they are fixed.

I know what it is, it doesn't make the finished product look better having that knowledge. They could have put windows over those since they are already bricked in. Maybe they will.

I don't mind the stairs but I would like them to put windows over the cinder blocks.

seems like they could have at least made the stairs and frames black so it is less noticeable, but who knows what goes through the minds of the decision makers. I think most people will notice the giant white wall of nothing that is next to it first anyway.

80% of the people entering Tiger Stadium will never see that wall.
