do you think the concourse will extend all the way to bramlage or will there still be an avenue/walkway for people to walk from one parking lot to the other on the south side without entering the stadium?

the way he describes it sounds like it would go right up to the bram. hopefully they leave a way to go through without entering the stadium... that would suck if you were trying to hit tailgates on either side.

i'm not really sure how they could do both. underground tunnel? i don't care either way personally.

Zipline.  2 of them.

Being ITK on such things.  I can say the ORIGINAL master plan had an elevated East-West/West-East walkway above an expanded South concourse.

[W1LDC@T$!]

Just wait till next wednesday, the crane on the north end of the stadium is supposed to be about 150 feet taller than the current on on the south end. (which doesn't seem right to me, I wonder if who I talked to, go their North/South mixed up, but I guess we'll see)

If you want to watch cats closet get demolished that's happening on monday morning.

 Often the crane isn't erected to its eventual max planned height until later in the job.  They usually tie structurally to the new building every few floors.

That doesn't apply to a 7 story building.

If it is going to be 150' taller than the one there now it will.

soo....if they erect a 250' tower (and I doubt they will) what would the upper 150' be tied off to exactly?

Was my point. Won't have an ungodly amt of crane in the air. Haven't really paid attn to the scope of the building in this thread.

At one point there was talk of opening up the Bram concourse on the North side on game day to allow pass through.

Seems kinda K-State0.

This is the plan for the 2012 season since the Cats Closet/bathrooms are getting demolished. Not a long term solution.

Discussion still taking place about if/how to allow fans to cross through to other lot. Like Dax said some sort of elevated walkway is probably the best bet, but it will need to be figured out at some point.
