Do you think they will sell game tickets for the views from the top flow of that building?

I'm sure that space will be used on game day.

But as for watching the game from there? The building is outside the stadium gates, at least 120 yards from the field. Yes, you can see the field -- but not well enough for it to be a prime vantage point. (See post #432.)

Is the webcam down for everyone else as well or is it just my computer?

Wanted to get back to this. The sports performance center looks awesome on TV! Think it would look great if we had a skybox on the East Side of the stadium to match...


Agreed. It looks really cool from the SE corner upper deck and on TV. I don't like the way it blocks the view of the "football" roof on Bergstrom, but it is a net gain to the Jack Trice Stadium skyline.

We were mentioning that it would have been cool if the east wall was put at like a 35 degree angle to give more of a bowled look. Look awesome still and they seem to have made some progress on one of the hillsides.

I admit, I must be kinda dumb.

Now that I’m seeing more what the finished product is going to look like IRL...This is actually set up to be the west wing of a massive, sprawling NEZ expansion somewhere down the line, isn’t it?

Wish they would put a webcam showing the front of the new building.

Sitting near the SEZ for the Tech game I couldn't help but be a little disappointed that the facade of the new athletic building doesn't match that of the aesthetic of Hilton, Stephens, etc. Seems like a real missed opportunity there. It's very pronounced sitting inside the Jack.
Not sure I'd want it to match. Not like Hilton and Stephens are that impressive from outside IMO. It will fit with the look of the SEZ from the outside and NEZ.

Plus it wont be far off of the Hilton after the concourse renovations occur (https://spark.adobe.com/page/PikhWkPcY2eK9/)
