Release: SCHEMATIC DESIGNS FOR SOUTH END ZONE PROJECT RELEASED

[hexodat64]

I'm thrilled that the response has been so positive. That's really all that matters...but the outside is glass...glass. Nebraska, KSU, OSU, pretty much everyone builds awesome stone entrances and we get a second coming of the Jacobson building. Ahh, I'm just disappointed. I thought the 2008 renderings were amazing, can't say I'm in love with what was released today. That said I'm sure I'll love everything when I walk in fall of 15'.

While I understand that, what they went with is what we can afford, and the design will mach the design language we have going on in the area. Aka Jacobson and Bergstrom Complex. If you did something too radical with stone, it would look really out of place with the Jake and the rest of Jack Trice being concrete. You'd need to do a whole new facade and that would be very expensive

Heres to hoping that they dont waste 1/2 the new video screen with Istate logos on both sides. I know its on the renderings, but you might as well have a smaller screen

Uhh...the speakers are behind the logos.

 

[ripvdub]

Uhh...the speakers are behind the logos.

I was unaware they couldnt put speakers anywhere else.

I was unaware they couldnt put speakers anywhere else.

It is a clean way to present them though...

 

[TOFB4ISU]

The interior rendering is just not very good. I'm surprised it was released with the others, which are well done. Looking forward the video fly-through.

I think he was just trying to come up with a response to make it seem like he knew those weren't just black pieces of plywood with I-State logos painted on them.

Wasn't it mentioned at one point in time that students would be relocated to the south endzone?

Not going to happen.

 

[HitItHard58]

Nothing special to add here just wanted to say I'm so ******* pumped to see this in person in 2015!!!!

the the glass design will integrate well with the Reiman Garden architecture.

So you wont be buying club seats, I take it?

 

[F5cy]

Not going to happen.

umm no

I'm sure it was at least mentioned, because there was talk about how the seating sections presently occupied by the students were more valuable than end zone seats. This may have been 5 years ago, but I'm 99% sure it was discussed.

And I'm not suggesting this is what will happen now, with the current plan, especially considering the club being located there etc.. I just didn't know if it was possible students would be relocated to the corners perhaps?

 

[HGPuck]

It was discussed by fans on here, but confirmed by the AD that they won't be moving or at least that's not the plan. The only thing I could see being moved is the visitors section.

[MaccloNe]

I hope this doesn't price me out of the ability to afford tickets.

 

[HGPuck]

I would guess that the new upper deck corners will be at a similar price point to the current end zone seats.

I hope this doesn't price me out of the ability to afford tickets.

It was talked about a couple months ago after they got the donation, and it was a possibility. But now that they revealed that club seats would take up a good portion of that area, I can't see the students moving anytime soon.

I really hope they do move the visitors section to one of the upper corners. Just about every other team gives their visitors the worst sections in the stadium but ISU has their visitor section in the lower bowl.

 

[wxman1]

I can't think of one stadium that doesn't have a lower bowl visitor section...

I'd rather we make a unique, modern look than try and compete using the same materials against schools with much more money backing.
