Re: Initial rendering of new Sofield Indoor Facility
Which happens first? The indoor facility or the partial renderings you can see of the east side?

A walkway above ground similar to what connects dining hall to River Street deck would be smart from either endzone or the athletic offices, suites, etc. to the indoor facility.

Is softballs new facility complete yet? A lot of scheduling needed on this one.

And the Jerry Moore Plaza.
Funny that they included the East Side design yet forgot the scoreboard and the plaza.

Re: Initial rendering of new Sofield Indoor Facility
There is where I beat a dead horse. When there is funding for a project, there is an announcement. This is why the East side plan never had funding secured. Because I'm far from a genius, so I know for a fact it didn't take a genius to know "funding secured" was untrue.

Re: Initial rendering of new Sofield Indoor Facility
If you look closely you can see the purposed east side structure above the existing KBS east side seating...which leads me to think there is a master plan rendering out there.
Leak the whole picture!

That is about the IPF, not the East side.ASUTodd wrote: ↑Thu Nov 09, 2023 1:03 amThis just popped up in my feed.... https://appstatesports.com/news/2023/11 ... etics.aspx.

Re: Initial rendering of new Sofield Indoor Facility
The IPF is part of the entire stadium area expansion/addition. Maybe call the athletic department and ask instead of just complaining on here. They’ll tell you the plan.appgrad95&97 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 09, 2023 1:07 amThat is about the IPF, not the East side.ASUTodd wrote: ↑Thu Nov 09, 2023 1:03 amThis just popped up in my feed.... https://appstatesports.com/news/2023/11 ... etics.aspx.

Re: Initial rendering of new Sofield Indoor Facility
Hopeful this includes tearing down the East Side 2nd deck metal bleachers with 10 metal staircases and 100 concrete columns that crowd the concourse.kornegaylw wrote: ↑Wed Nov 08, 2023 5:07 pmIf you look closely you can see the purposed east side structure above the existing KBS east side seating...which leads me to think there is a master plan rendering out there.

$150M+ spent in 7 years and we still have metal structures and bleachers.

Absolutely gorgeous and a great example to draw from. Maybe DG will visit the football stadium when basketball plays them.

Re: Initial rendering of new Sofield Indoor Facility
They have a plan. That is clear. They don't have funding for the East side expansion. That is also clear.BeauFoster wrote: ↑Thu Nov 09, 2023 7:03 amThe IPF is part of the entire stadium area expansion/addition.

Re: Initial rendering of new Sofield Indoor Facility
We will find out after the season, going into winter and spring, if the funding exists. Either they will construct the projects or they won't. I'm not going to worry about renderings, lip service, or rumors. Either it happens or it doesn't.
