Anyone who wants to go take a picture of the BBPF as it is now and post it here would certainly be welcomed in this thread.

Cranes were for the BPF.  They were putting giant HVAC stuff on the roof today.  They had three going at one point.

I don't think they are putting any equipment on the roof. It would be too visible and would just be an eyesore if they screened it.
I watched them put it up.  But yea go ahead and keep speculating.

It's on the lower roof between the courts isn't it?

This. LOL at old-fashioned permanent yellow-on-black "GUEST" and "AWAY" scoreboards. Gmafb here guys.

so you're fine that it's a hockey scoreboard, but you want it in white on black?

No. It will look like this, with LCD pixels or whatever they are called, not anything with "fixed" words like "HOME" and "GUEST", etc:

i never understood why construction takes so long.  its like roads.  i guess when you factor in that it's society's lowest common denominator actually doing the plans, engineering, and construction, it all makes sense.

never met a lazier lot than those types of people.

The dudes who build QTs are pretty amazing.  Also, they put up a big ass FEMA shelter at the middle school in my neighborhood in like 3 days.

Sounds like we all work really close together.  Also, I've heard everyone is excited about JitB (credit to clams) but when I ask them what they like there, they say it really isn't very good.

Also live/work close to there, and drive by it all the time. No idea there was a JitB there

So reading the last few threads is it true that the west side expansion will include a Jack-in-the-box? Or is the West Side being built by the same people that build Jack-in-the-boxes. I'm confused>?

You know in one of the phases they were talking about upgrading the North End video board and putting in a distributed sound system.

With the squared off nature of BSFS I think it would be better if they put 4 nice sized video boards in each corner of the stadium rather than having a second larger video board in the North endzone.   I think that would make for a lot better viewing angles for the majority of folks even with the improved viewing angles on modern LED display video boards.
