Concrete slabs being laid on stringers. Getting better idea of what finished product will look like.

DG said they were getting an architect to work on it next month. Construction would begin right after Luke Combs Concert on 2 May.CornCobPipes wrote: ↑Sat Dec 28, 2019 8:02 pmLooking good!
Anyone seen any renderings for what the South EZ project will look like?
So you have experience? You can be Supervisor.HighPointApp wrote: ↑Sat Dec 28, 2019 9:04 pmCount me out. I moved dirt in my backyard for 3 hours. Maybe I can help next month.
I would be a perfect supervisor. Great idea.AppSt94 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 28, 2019 9:15 pmSo you have experience? You can be Supervisor.HighPointApp wrote: ↑Sat Dec 28, 2019 9:04 pmCount me out. I moved dirt in my backyard for 3 hours. Maybe I can help next month.
I hope we go seats all the way to field level. I've seen how Navy-Marine Corps stadium has permanent seats on the top and grass on the bottom...it just looks weird.CornCobPipes wrote: ↑Sat Dec 28, 2019 8:02 pmLooking good!

Forget the funding issue for the moment and consider this. It's a mighty ambitious undertaking to get all of the architectural and engineering work completed, get the necessary final approvals of the BOT, the UNC-BOG, the State of NC Engineering Div., and the State of NC Purchase and Contracts Div.; advertise for bids; accept bids; excavate/grade the Miller Hill and haul in a zillion cubic yards of fill dirt to "move" the hill closer to the SEZ AND fully replace the Field Turf in KBS between January 6th (when the university reopens) and Sept, 5th for the first game of the season--considering that site prep and excavation/installations could not begin before Monday, May 4--at he earliest. We're all very well "schooled" at how slowly the cogs of university admin and NC state gov't turn and mesh.Appstatf e88 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 28, 2019 8:12 pmCornCobPipes wrote: ↑Sat Dec 28, 2019 8:02 pmLooking good!

I do not want any seats in the south end zone. This is the current plan. Just bring it closer in proportion to the north end zone distance from the field. Create a larger plaza area for pedestrian traffic walking between East and West stands. Create more space for concessions. Grade Miller Hill with less slope and keep it natural grass. I think it is a good plan.APPdiesel wrote: ↑Sun Dec 29, 2019 1:18 amI hope we go seats all the way to field level.

If you have time, could you take some pictures and post them? Thanks!!AppUSMC wrote: ↑Sun Dec 29, 2019 10:02 amIt’s necessary to work when the weather gives you the opportunity up here! I dropped by last night and it’s looking very impressive. The seats look way closer to the end zone than I expected from the drawings. I’ve never been a big fan of the perspective end zone seats give of the game but this project puts the seats so high and close to the end zone that I may change my mind. It’s going to be amazing.
