[QUOTE="ilphotog, post: 1235481, member: 5372"] Today's visit - Nothing major, the biggest difference is a lot of the construction items have been cleaned up, there would be pallets lying around with tools and parts on them, as they worked in certain area's. I would guess that 60-70% of those are gone and cleaned up. Mainly cosmetic items remain. The Hall of Fame room is done and looks great. All of the main concession stands are set up with equipment and are ready to go. In the Legacy and Krush clubs, they are almost done, TV's were installed, tables and chairs are in. The locker rooms are also almost done, just some cosmetic work remains. The "commons area" between the two locker rooms is also almost done. All the seats are in, a huge projection screen is in the middle, and two 80" TV's are on each side. This is a place to watch the Super Bowl. One change I did notice today, the old scoreboards located up high on the East and West sides have been removed, the new ones will be here soon. All the info that used to be on them, will now be on the new scoreboard. Outside things are mostly done, finishing up some landscape work. The SE parting lot has been repaved and lines painted for the parking spaces. Everything appears to be on schedule and will be complete by the 26th of this month. [/QUOTE]
