20,000 square-foot all-purpose
lounge, which will be located un
derneath the three-story tower. The
Club will include concessions and
bathrooms solely for the people in
the luxury areas.
“Autzen Stadium, as an existing
stadium, is such an unique stadium
that it demands a unique design solu
tion for its expansion,” Poston said.
“We very much made our expansion
design conform to the original spirit
and intent of Autzen Stadium. ”
The 6,000 student seats will re
main on the north side, which is the
side the Oregon team stands on dur
ing the game. The NCAA has a rule
that the student section be on the side
of the home team, so student Duck
fans will remain in the same location.
“I’m not sure that the student
body would be interested in moving
anyway,” Assistant Athletic Director
-Steve McBride said. “The ones in
the largest of those sections are pret
ty prime seats, and we want to main
tain that just as much as the students
want to keep that yardage.”
The construction of the renova
tion is in the hands of a joint ven
ture between the Hunt company of
Phoenix and Wildish from Eugene.
Hunt-Wildish has hired many sub
contractors to complete specialized
work including three local compa
nies — John Hyland Construction,
who will build much of the poured
in-place concrete; Twin Rivers, a
plumbing company; and L.H. Mor
ris, an electric company.
Also working for Hunt-Wildish is
the Gale Roberts company, which is
the same company that built Autzen
in 1966. It has now been subcon
tracted to build some of the site
buildings, or unattached structures
next to the stadium, including tick
eting and maintenance buildings.
Currently, 65 to 75 workers are
on site at Autzen, but project man
ager John Norton expects the num
ber to reach up to 500 people in or
der for the field to be ready by the
Ducks’ first game on Aug. 31.
The renovation will be accom
plished in what Norton called a
“phased completion,” with the
concourse level and seating bowl
ready for the first game against Mis
sissippi State. Construction of the
press boxes and skyboxes will con
tinue through the season, which
features an Oregon record eight
home games, and probably finish
some time in the spring of 2003.
In two weeks, two more cranes
will be brought to the site in addi
tion to the crane already there. The
new cranes will assist in piecing to
gether the new seating bowl on the
south side.
