Message: [QUOTE="Ottoble, post: 1527198, member: 2539"] My thoughts: -4 side expansion is good and appropriate, they are listening, structurally and in space management terms this is what I expected, balancing the north and south expansion makes more sense for foundations of those big trusses. -I would expect the south expansion to hang over the sidewalk and have columns inset a few feet from the curb line. -Hotel, good Idea but I would prefer a 12-15 story structure with separate entrances, back to back the elevators, Hotel on certain 6-8 floors academic space on others. Use your vertical space. -Parking, Perhaps sub-grade parking could be worked into the hotel and human performance school plans, but you can only go so deep before you are below existing dome foundations. -Parking 2: All buildings from here out on that side of campus need to have sub-grade parking built into the design -Parking 3: Improve transportation to south see my comments from fan experience pages. -Perimeter Glass - Good they are listening to me :-). Open concourses at corners where these windows are? -First floor of Human performance and Hotel buildings should have big open public/private mix spaces for pre-game visitors/student daily/commercial food/retail use and development -Thinking about this as a phased approach, I think it may be possible to keep all teams in the dome if you do the interior work between seasons. -If you did have to move a football season could you build a huge temporary set of stands ringing the field at the state fair grounds. Ex grandstand=17,000 could you add 20k at the other 3 sides -Carrier contract? how far do we need to go to start getting a 10yr multi million dollar corporate sponsorship, is it worth it? Can we name the whole complex and name each building within the complex, including leaving the name of the carrier dome intact? [/QUOTE]
