I see concrete walls going down. Maybe another tunnel for foot traffic.

That actually makes a lot of sense to keep pedestrians separate from traffic exiting the parking deck.

I was going to suggest a hole for folks to toss their NIL money into, but it's probably not that.

It’s a new ultra exclusive VIP parking garage. Big enough to park 6 cars in.

Don't worry about parking for football, they paved that little gravel lot at Student Union. Should be good to go now.

It would have been nice if they had a new underground tunnel at that spot.
