    Construction Cam Alert

    Brick panels being installed in sight of the camera. Cranes much closer to the east side. 59 days to go.

    Also appears more jumbotron panels are going in.

    I see it being done if they get interior people working around the clock.

    But really I won't call it done until they fix the audio next year or whenever.

    Why, why, why do people who aren't construction managers continue to say this when Stricklin as repeated time and time again that it will be done? Destroy Stricklin if it doesn't get done, but do we have to continue to guess everyday?

    It might not be 100% done (cosmetics, punch lists, ready to hand the keys to Strickin), but it will be ready to be occupied by Game 1.

    My cousin's girlfriend's brother is working on the stadium crew. He said that she said that he said that they have already been told that they would get off a little early on August 30th, around 3:00.

    It will be fine. Will it be 100% done? Probably not. It will be in good enough shape to use for football games.

    I'd be shocked if they don't have butts in seats game 1, but I can't see it being a finished project. It takes asphalt about a week to set, so they've got about 6 weeks to get the cranes out of there and lay the asphalt on the ground outside the NEZ (assuming that's the last thing they'll do).

    Love seeing it come together. From the picture: Seats going onto the risers in the 100 section, facade coming up on the outside NE side, field work, and I think the jumbotron panels are all in place (unless there's some above the camera's view).

    So what's left for the exterior? Wrap the 'tron, seats in place, finish the facade, and cover that green house-wrap looking stuff? Plus the landscaping stuff. They've got tons of interior pics HERE.

    Question- I wonder how far the brick facade panels have to travel to get there? I would imagine that trucking those in is a little nervous, even if it is better than making them on-site.

    I can't wait to see both of those monitors lit up at night. Just think how loud the cowbells are about to be.

    Banner alert. Over the Gridiron?

    ETA: Now that I think about it, that must be the spot. No hashtags on the playing surface.

    Judging by the cam, it does look like a banner- I think I can see it being rolled up right now.. Looked sharp though.

    They've been working 24/7 on the interiors for weeks now.
