Re: Bookstore
Notice no "proposed construction" at the soccer stadium. Not that I'm advocating it, but I know since at least 2006 they've wanted to renovate the stands, give it a brick facade and spruce it up. I guess no one wrote a check for it. Wonder where an IPF would go on that map...
Re: Bookstore
what is going where the existing tennis courts are now? aren't they moving the outdoor courts?
would be great for IPF.

Re: Bookstore
The courts, which were recently built at Dublin @ Airline (behind Crum), are going to be moved across Mockingbird. Looks like a parking structure is going to go on that parcel.GiddyUp wrote:what is going where the existing tennis courts are now? aren't they moving the outdoor courts?

Re: Bookstore
yet no one has offered a single explanation as to why they can't put it atop the Bush Library.

Because the field needs to be level. The Library will obviously be leaning to the right.Junior wrote:yet no one has offered a single explanation as to why they can't put it atop the Bush Library.

Prediction: IPF will go where existing practice field is with new locker room and a tunnel that links up to tunnel at SW corner.GiddyUp wrote:what is going where the existing tennis courts are now? aren't they moving the outdoor courts?

At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Re: Bookstore
Can't imagine that they would load up that Bishop Ave. entrance with a huge structure (would obscure/eliminate the view of the stadium from Mockingbird - too much of a showplace to cover up) - Now, they could go underground - but that's some tough diggin' as you saw with the excavation for Ford Stadium. I'm predicting a tie-in with the dormitory project somewhere in the vicinity of Potomac or on the surface lot across from Doak Walker plaza.

Re: Bookstore
then they'd better have another intramural field being built cuz if you kill that then you have one less thing that campus doesn't have to offer for the average student, which isn't much right now as it is.
