Here is a look at the proposed site map. It will take up a total of roughly 243 acres and includes portions of the ECC South Campus athletic fields and parking lots. ECC Buildings will not be impacted.

First reaction is there isn’t going to be as much wind by flipping the field 90-ish degrees.  What wind there may be will now be cross wind.

And I think the way it's built will minimize the impact of wind as well.  Gonna help the offenses for sure and be more pleasurable for fans.

The dome is going downtown, with the stadium in OP. It was a compromise. 🤷‍♂️

Was the website crash cover for the news drop of Hammer's Lot being overtaken? 

 

Maybe I’m looking at the map wrong, but it appears to me that @Hammers Lot‘s property is unaffected.

If they widen that strip a little and then make the stadium the shape of a football, it'll look like the Lombardi trophy from over head

One way to eliminate the competition.

 

I am not sure what caused site to be Rosened but SDS needs to eliminate Josh Rosen from staff.

What these early sketches show is that there’s a ton of property surrounding ‘Rich’ Stadium. I can’t see the construction on the new stadium having much, if any, impact on the existing Stadium operations or game day experience.

Except parking I'd imagine. Not that it'll be that big a deal.

I have not been for weeks and I assumed it was part of software change.

This topic is OLD. A NEW topic should be started unless there is a very specific reason to revive this one.
