knapplc Posted June 28, 2012 Author Share Posted June 28, 2012 I'm going to have to break this down into a few posts because I have a lot to post. I took pics of the expansion last weekend but this is the first chance I've had to post them. First pic is actually from today. I went through the stadium and got a chance to take a panorama of the whole thing. It's a HUGE pic, so be warned... 4 Quote Link to comment

knapplc Posted June 28, 2012 Author Share Posted June 28, 2012 Now, from last weekend: I was able to get inside the construction fence for a few of these, thanks to a very kind gentleman working on the weekend. Walked in, snapped a couple of shots, and left post haste. This is the progress on Ed Weir Track from the weekend: 2 Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted June 28, 2012 Author Share Posted June 28, 2012 Next up, the Arena and environs. The standard Arena shot: They've already started adding some seat decks to the structure: And a staircase going in: The power plant building, taken from the parking lot of the Post Office: And the Amtrak station, which opened for business this week, a day or two after this pic was taken: The Arena from the south, under the canopy about a block north of O Street: And this was taken today, from Haymarket Park, looking south at the Arena to provide another angle to see this thing: 3 Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted June 28, 2012 Author Share Posted June 28, 2012 And finally, several shots of the project from inside the stadium: Quote Link to comment
95huskers Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 once again, good work knapp Quote Link to comment
Blackshirt316 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 That panorama is the greatest picture in the history of pictures. I would kill to see one of those shots done once the stadium is finished. Quote Link to comment
Twinkletoes Flintstone Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Excellent photos knapplc, thanks for taking the time to keep us out of towners up to date (especially since the athletic department is covering the project so well). The stadium looks kind of weird right now with the perspective of the iron work and how they are enclosing it at the moment. Can't wait to see it once the iron work is done. Quote Link to comment
Twinkletoes Flintstone Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Are they replacing the bleachers in east stadium? Looks like something is going on but I can't quite tell what. Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted June 29, 2012 Author Share Posted June 29, 2012 Are they replacing the bleachers in east stadium? Looks like something is going on but I can't quite tell what. Yes, they are. They already replaced the bleachers in the west stadium last spring. I don't know if they're doing the south stadium, but the north bleachers should be new enough that they don't need replacing.

corncraze Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 They still have one more floor before they put the bleachers on top right? Quote Link to comment
