Future Campus Framework Discussion

[Cuse4455]

It is pretty weird that they could put an entirely new roof on without missing any games but constructing a lobby is going to take 8+ months.

My best friend constructed the beams for this new entrance, the University was SUPER anal about everything. They also changed their minds constantly on what they wanted. So a job that would've taken him a month and a half, took 3 and a half.

Interesting...

Wonder what the debates are about the interior. It has been strange there's no inside rendering at all.

I also have a source working on the Miron Victory Court...they say it is VERY behind schedule, to the point that there is a bit of a freak out going on. They couldn't see how it would ever be ready for the season at this point, and with the 2 main corner entrances being a part of this construction will be a real issue come game time with people having to use other entrances.

Let's pray the figure it out fast

Well BL: there is at most only 42-43K at a game.

I always was amazed at the timeline they had for this project. Felt fast and likely to be done cheaply. I also am very curious how they plan to retrofit the Sheraton into a dorm in the next 3 months ahead of Fall semester.

I think that is pretty easy assuming they don't need to do extensive ADA or NEC stuff. A hotel and student dorm should be very similar for electrical and plumbing.

I hope this is a short term thing.

Allow the students to destroy it over the next 4-5 years until more dorms are built. Close it and gut it to turn back into a modern hotel by 2030.

Heck, didn't they erect the Empire State Building in 6 months?

I believe it was 13 months. I have a client that keeps telling me this every time I mention a construction delivery delay.

I assume they may need to spend the money to go triple shifts unless it’s a material delivery problem. Very expensive, but they can’t have 44,000 people in there with less egress. Not safe.

I keep on looking for renderings and cannot find any. Why not release it?

That picture give me the jitters every time I see it, that's just crazy.

Just close your eyes and imagine how fast it will be...

That’s Rockefeller Center. Much slower build due to all the safety precautions.

They have some external renderings. If they are making changes at this stage (with the steel structure up), they don't any have internal renderings at all to save time/money or the OG ones are so outdated they've been archived.

I'll take a planview of the interior. They have so much more room for activities!

Yeah have to assume that’s against fire code

I believe those are the OSHA inspectors

Not necessarily...the reduced capacity might actually save them

Maybe if it's still just the beams that are up, they could turn it into a playground and people could swing from beam to beam... lol

Never happen unless we get a medical school/research again. AAU changed its priorities.

I laugh reading this when they couldn't spell the last name of an SU hoops legend correctly

Wait! I've had those seats in the Dome! I'm sure of it!

30 Rock is 850 feet tall. But looking down at the buildings under them, they seem like they are higher off the ground than that.

It seems more like an airplane view.

It is in fact 30 Rock and they have recreated it as a tourist attraction as part of the “Top of the Rock” experience.

You can now recreate an iconic NYC photo at Rockefeller Center's Top of the Rock

A new interactive experience called “The Beam” is now open at Rockefeller Center, allowing visitors to recreate the famed 1932 photo showing 11 workers eating lunch on a steel beam high above Manhattan streets while 30 Rock was under construction.
