Frost Arena renovation.......

[rimmer]

hardly get to Brookings, so, wondering if there are any pics of the ongoing renovation? what are they working on this summer/fall?

It is my understanding that most of the work is focused on the new entrance in the SE corner. Don’t know
what that all entails though.

I saw a video, can't remember exactly what was said, but basically the project was split into 3 off season (summer) parts , part one was under the building work and removal of the big stairway and a new entrance made where the equipment would move in and out and you wouldn't see much of the work going on, part two was the first tier construction and part 3 was the top tier and then the main floor. Hope that helps as I couldn't find the video clip again and my memory is very short term.

Hopefully Midco continues to air those segments in the future, although I see Zim and Zach Borg have opted to supplement the NLA podcast with their own "Show" now

Will the air handling duct-work provide cooling and heating for crowd comfort, hope so. Hope they upgrade that also. If anyone knows about details of what the whole renovation entails.
