Stadium Redo? Print
ImageOn Nov. 29, UW Athletics Director Todd Turner unveiled options for a possible renovation of Husky Stadium and his vision for future sports facilities. A remodeled stadium might include a new west end addition and premium seating, such as suites, but the overall capacity of 72,500 would not change substantially. Above, one possible option for Husky Stadium would be a new west end with a roof similar to those covering the north and south stands. Other facility plans include a new football operations center, a relocated track, baseball and soccer stadiums and redesigned locker rooms. In his press conference, Turner noted that there are no set costs or timelines to these ideas. Nearby construction for a Sound Transit light rail station and the State Route 520 expansion could complicate these sports projects. Drawing courtesy of HOK Sport.
