It doesn’t matter if your excited, apprehensive, nostalgic or eager: at the end of the day, it’s night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jack Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 (edited) Drove by the site today since I was in the area for work. Not much to look at, just a big hole in the ground with large piles of dirt around it. Oh, and Danny's South has 10 cent wings on Mondays, 2pm-10pm.

For anyone looking for updated pics that @Draconator has posted. Here’s the latest ones from about a week ago. Massive hole in the ground now. They were driving huge earth movers in and out of the hole and you couldn’t see them once they were at the bottom. https://drive.google.com/drive/mobile/folders/1slFkG1Tgt1z6Sr5_PsRrflmzreYclzkI?usp=sharing 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoPoy88 Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Pretty much OT but I just read a couple things about this crazy thing in Vegas that Populous also built: https://www.axios.com/2023/07/08/sphere-las-vegas-venue-shows apparently opening in September with U2.

The fence surrounds the entirety of all the parking on the west side of Abbott. From all the way north near southwestern, right up to Hammers lot.

It also seems to be around 40% perhaps a little more of the primary parking. Should be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In NJ it was a pain in the ass parking at the Meadowlands for 3 years when MetLife was being built right next to Giants Stadium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they announced the camper lots would be done until the new stadium is built. eh on the 40%. It’s probably less than 30% of what the Bills lots COULD hold. Not the majority of that side of Abbott always seems dead to me on game day. There’s the campers there then a whole bunch of open space. The lots of Southwestern are easily their largest lots. Then there’s the few smaller lots on the side of the field house and across the street on Abbott behind the chiropractor I think is there’s as well. personally I don’t think it’ll effect too much as probably 30-50% or more of Bills fans park in private lots around the stadium. Those private lots aren’t changing. 1 hour ago, Gregg said: When the season starts leave early for home games just to see how the parking/traffic will go.

As the % of fans that DO park in the Abbott lot that is closed down will have to find somewhere else to park. It will clearly be a bit busier in the private lots. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCal Deek Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 The fence will encompass WAY more area than the stadium footprint. The Construction Team needs what is called a ‘lay down’ area for materials, trailers, and equipment to be stored and moved around the perimeter. You can imagine how much ‘stuff’ needs to be delivered to a massive construction project. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Jones Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 As this moves forward, I'm just curious if anybody can fly their drone near/over this site. FAA certainly wouldn't have a (good) reason to restrict the airspace, would they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
