Work has started on getting the roof put on the east side of the dome.

Meanwhile, crane 5b is doing good work advancing the western build towards the southern build.  If they work on the weekend, I think thinking the gap might be closed by Monday of next week.

We have talked a little about the mysterious pipe cage being built next to Gate B  It looks like it has been capped off now.  Lots of welding going on as they work to complete it.

The question is, what is it?

My guess, given the location, is that it is a natural gas line that is being added to give the concession stands in this corner of the dome, on both the 100 and 300 levels, the ability to cook with natural gas (burgers maybe, definitely to run deep fryers for chicken tenders and fries).

It looks like this cage is being built to protect the gas line and ensure it does not get accidentally damaged.  I think they capped it where they did because that was the height needed to gain access to the 300 level.

But I am not a construction guy and am probably wrong.

On a selfish level, it would be great to have more food options in this location.  It is right about between where I sit for football and basketball.  Much easier to get to than the concession stand in the NE corner where the old Burger King was.  Probably easier for almost everyone who goes to basketball games too.

Hope it happens.  Even if we have to wait until next September to use it.
