is that different than the previous designs? looks the same.

That is the old Populous mockup. AECOM's renderings will be different.

I KNEW IT.

When can we expect AECOM's?

I would presume with recent happenings, it's going to still happen.

It's happening, and still on track to begin construction this Spring. Public announcement will be before the end of the year. Changing architects is the biggest reason it isn't public yet... K-State AD can't legally show AECOM any of the old Populous design work, so they have to work through some of the basic things again (what do we want, what are our requirements and so forth).

It depends, are you using the Urick/Weiser construction time frame model?  If so, 9 years, construction will take 9 years . . . oh, unless you're going to slap up a half done cookie cutter building, then 9 months.

I'm surprised AECOM can't find whatever Populous design work they'd want to see somewhere in this thread.

If I remember correctly it was a 3-phase project.  Phase 2 was the main pressbox and phase 3 was wrapping it around and little and hopefully the weight room.

Was phase 1 message boarding about it?  Because I think we've almost completed phase 1.

I've wanted this for so long, I won't know what to do with myself when it's complete.  :party:  Maybe I'll complain about some minor issue I don't like about it.   :shakesfist:
