Stripping out the irrelevent notes such as Shine Student Center and Video Boards and cosmetics in the dome here is the timeline.
 
1.  1962 Manley Field House is built with the intention that it would be an indoor practice facility for the football team, among other things.

1972-74 Current Skytop housing and Administrative Center.

1975 Coyne Field constructed.

1980 The Carrier Dome opens and Mike Woicik gets expanded weight room with new equipment.

1990: new football practice fields,
2.  1991 Iocoalno Petty Building with new and expanded weight room, training rooms, sports medicine, auditorium, meeting rooms, cafeteria, coach’s offices, player’s lounge and tribute to captains and bowl teams.

1994 Stevenson Academic Support Center.

1995 Simmon’s Coaches’ Building.

2000 Football locker rooms expanded and custom oak lockers put in.

2005 New Strength and Conditioning Wing opens.

2006 Practice fields redone with field turf.

2010 Manley is converted back to an 80 yard indoor practice facilities.

2011 Sports Medicine Unit is expanded, including an aquatic therapy unit.

2012 A “Hall of Champions” is put into the I-P Building honoring all of our NCAA champions, (one in football). A further locker room upgrade .
 
-----------------------
 
What we have is a desperation refurb of a 50 yr old building as a stop gap in the Manley upgrade.   Players living n 40 yd old apartments, upgrades of practice fields every 15 yrs, 20 yrs between upgrades in the sports medicine facilities, refurbs of the locker rooms twice in 20 years, updates to the strenght and conditioning facilities twice in the last 30 years, 20 years between updates to the meeting rooms, lounges, cafeteria.
 
Your time line supports what most people know, SU has done the minimal just to be functional.
