Oh cool. More construction on kimball near college.
In the video, it actually says there is no access from where the work will take place to Kimball, and the City of MHK will be building a new access road connecting College and Denison further north.
Yeah I’m listening to it now. My strong preference would be for all that to just remain open unused space space/farm land. But it at least sounds like they won’t have to tear up kimball again for two years if they do build more stuff.
I think them putting all that there is to hide that exact thing. I think trying to make the stadium feel less next to a feel is what they are going for
If they want BSFS to feel less “in the middle of nowhere” they need to do something about the endless sea of asphalt that surrounds the stadium. It’s more of an eyesore than farmland IMO.
The North Campus Corridor work helps with that, adding trees around the lots (and the practice facility helps as well). This EDGE district project would greatly help.
Another thing they hinted at for awhile was a main tree lined drive up to the front/main entrance of the WSC. I hope they do that at some point.
also the whole training building cuts down on that too (the sea of parking lots), that and all the little small things like the rowing, heck even the volleyball and Olympic place kinda fill in gaps from the baseball area.
Agreed also the landscaping and tree thing will help break it all up.
