Stadium Construction 7/20

Still a missed opportunity to have stripe symbols on each side of the road. Maybe it would have been too much, but what’s two more pillars on each side and different heights instead of the three current ones at the same height.
The JT stripes have been moreso adopted by the football program, not by the entire athletic department. It's a university gateway project, not just a football project
 
You can't really appreciate the size of this thing until you've seen it in person. I'd say it's right about a quarter mile long.

That is a good point. I have not seen the bridge since March... so it has come a long way.

I'm guessing that when you stand closer to the bridge, the ISTATE logos look pretty good. From a distance... whatever that is... the logos seem small compared to the size of the bridge.

The I-State logos are 10-11' tall.

I’m not going to complain but what people never seem to understand is it is proportions. It’s always about being proportional to the surroundings. Just because it is big enough to accomplish its goals doesn’t mean it looks right.

I’ll be curious to how the logos look in person but I wish they would have gone a bit bigger.
 
IMO, the logo is too diminutive and proportionally inconsequential. It should be 1 1/2 times larger and nearer the top. But, as they say "it's better than nothing".
They don’t want them to detract from the Matt Campbell inflatable that will be going up on top of the stair towers—standing with one foot on each.

Need to leave room on the top half of the tower for the Big 12 championship banners!
