Absolutely outstanding, you graphical virtuoso you.
Thank you so much. Not as clean as I would have liked to do it, but I was rushed seeing as how I am at work. . .

And to the question of if it looks how the renderings are- I'd say that it is pretty spot on.
I think it is pretty spot on as well, except for the northwest corner roof. Its really tough to tell from the angle of the sebo cam and the artist rendition, but it doesn't look like the angle's match to me. In the actual building it looks like the side of the roof facing the rest of the building as a incline (field to parking lot) where as in the drawings it is straight (in the same plane as the front side of the roof). Just my observation
Some one should tell Bob the builder not drink while on the job. :wink:

PGY, I think the roof thing is just not discernible on the camera because the grey sky of BG matches the current color of the roof. :wink: Seriously, the roof on the east side of the building does match the rendering.

The only difference I noticed is the actual building has three small windows on the south side on the west end. The rendering just shows trees.

The roof in the renderings is slightly different from the one that is being constructed. The real roof will not be as curved, angled, or whatever you call it. In order to lower the costs of the construction, they tweaked the roof slighty. It saved a surprising amount of money by simply by decreasing the curve .

Makes a lot of cents to me.

The glass is going up on the north face of Sebo as well. Looks very nice!

I still think it would have been nice if they had gotten the seating for the band in place for this game. But hey, instead the band is in the east stands for the game instead. Now that they actually have a good majority of the walls in place, hopefully the Doyt will actually have more of a feel of what it will be like next year! By the way, great job on that rendering DD!!

It definately would have been nice to be in our new home tomorrow. But at least with us being on the east side our home fans (except the students) will have a chance to hear us for a change.
Yeah right girl!

Would you really want to be sitting in a construction area?

It looks like they're pouring concrete between the building and the field. The band stands can't be that far off!

Let me be the first to say that Jimmy Hoffa is under that concrete.

I was really hoping they would be substantially done with the brick on the field side of the building before tomorrow night's game. Oh well - does not appear that is going to happen.
The progress lately has been great through.

Well if you're all in such a big f**king hurry to see some bricks up, grab a wheelbarrow, some bricks and maybe some cement and get to work!!

I'm busy making sure that the silly putty I used to hold up the elevator shaft looks good enough to pass inspection.
Can we fix it?

Yes we can!
