Moiraine Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 I dont see how any amount of common sense can allow for any question of this record. I prefer royal sense. Hyuck hyuck. Quote Link to comment

husker rob Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 back to stadium expansion........any new pictures of either the stadium or the arena? Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted December 24, 2012 Author Share Posted December 24, 2012 Both cranes are down now. The north crane is entirely gone, while just the tower of the south crane remains. Most of the facade is put up, with the remainder left open so they can bring in the large interior equipment, according to my construction crew source. They'll have a decent-sized crane on site for the remainder of the winter, but once they get the majority of the big pieces in, they're taking out all cranes and clean-up of the site can begin. It was super-cold out there, so not many pics today. First up, the remainder of the south crane tower: This is the behemoth that's taking down the construction cranes: The south face of the edition: The whole north side. Does this pic make you warm-weather Huskers cold? A wide shot of the whole structure from in front of M&N: 4 Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted December 24, 2012 Author Share Posted December 24, 2012 Now the Arena and environs. First up, Stadium Drive in all its cold, cold glory from where it merges with Salt Creek Roadway: Looking north along Stadium Drive at the O Street Overpass: Stadium Drive at Q & Stadium Drive, looking north past the Arena: This is the new building going up south of the Arena. I believe this is the new world headquarters for S.P.E.C.T.R.E.: And these are the only two pics I took of the Arena today. I didn't get out of the car and walk around much in the 10-degree air. Maybe if it warms up I'll go back up on the overpass and the footbridge. 5 Quote Link to comment
HANC Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Thanks for the pics...... Can't wait to see the project finished.. I appreciate you braving the elements to keep us informed on how the structure (s) look. A lot has changed since the Minn. game. Quote Link to comment
NebraskaHarry Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Are the seats done in the stadium? Quote Link to comment
ZRod Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Are the seats done in the stadium? That's probably a summer job for the players. Last time they remodeled the seats I thinks that's what thy did. Quote Link to comment
Flood Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 Awesome shots! Thanks for braving the cold for the rest of us! It's even a little chilly here in Tampa today. High temp was only about 65 or so. Can't wait for things to warm up again. On a fun note, though, it's a rare time that we get to light a fire here. That was nice, anyway. Merry Christmas everyone!

ZRod Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 Definitely not flood, just went for a walk in shorts and a t-shirt. Of course we're down here from Nebraska, but you could see your breath! Quote Link to comment
Flood Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 See your breath? You sure you are in the Tampa area? I have, from the Weather Channel, 73 tomorrow, 75 the next day, and then back to the cooler with 65. regardless, it is chillier than we like here in the Sunshine State. Best wishes!

Flood It was Clearwater, but close enough right? And I could see my breath, but probably because the humidity was something like 88%. Just one of those strange weather oddities I suppose. Now were back to the teens and single digits in good ol' Nebraskie... Quote Link to comment
