Touche. We get enough grass stains we don't need any paint on our shorts too.
Question: Are those windows on the west side of the upper levels of the SPC? If so, do the windows actually have yet to be installed?
Pretty sure those are just glossy exterior wall panels. If I remember the floor plans that's all "service" stuff on that side. Bathrooms, kitchens, mechanical, storage, etc. Nothing they'd need (or want) windows for.
The 3rd floor has academic offices along that wall. I would imagine those would have some windows.
Instead of paint, what if they laid down some big black marble(or whatever) slabs to make the Jack Trice symbol.
That's what I thought. I'm just not sure why if those are windows, they weren't installed earlier. You'd think that they would have to put up scaffolding to do it now, because I wouldn't think they could put a scissor lift up on that roof.
Looking at the webcam more, I do think they've got the windows already installed. There just not very visible. Along the west side you can some breaks or discontinuities along the wall.
If the glass is done everywhere else on the building and they are as far along on interior work as we've seen, they'd have the windows in (except on
Yeah, now that you say it, I think that you're probably right. The glass on the stairwells you can't really see through unless it's dark out and the lights are one. Like it's frosted. Those windows must be similar.
I snared this screenshot earlier when the camera operator was panning around. I get pretty most of what I’m seeing. The walkway light footings, the fact that there is going to be (from the renderings) a black border around the grass.
But why would there be a line of broken concrete next to the sidewalk by 4th Street? They just poured that.
The renderings also show there is supposed be a low wall there (probably to channel foot traffic to the walkways), so I’d expect a trench for footings there—not broken concrete.
Or am I seeing things?

Is that broken concrete or is it concrete covered in plastic like you see in the foreground?
Someone set the zoom on where the action was, then wandered off.
I’ve been wondering where equipment was trundling off to. Finally, the person operating the camera panned to the left.
Thanks!
Thanks!
I suppose this view gives us a fairly good idea as to where the webcam is located.
This is very true. The latest Legends pod between CW and Steve Malchow touches on the deliberate actions taken by the AD to involve families and kids 15 yrs ago. It's the Happy Meal marketing plan... get the kids hooked early... they go to school at ISU... they graduate... the donate back. And, it is paying off as everybody outside of Ames, IA drools over the presence of our fanbase.
Appreciate the updates here as I have zero construction or engineering knowledge, and I can't believe you guys actually sit and stare at a site through a camera for as long as you do.
