My internet's being ghetto, but if somebody wants to lurp and post all these elevations/renders of the ASU Downtown SRC, I'd much appreciate it.

So the outdoor running track at the Y is going away? I used to love making my players run around that shit.

Appears there will be a 4th floor jogging track. If its anything like Poly and West one its probably an add-on for later.

Not too bad for a shot out the window...

Vicelord John · #**769** Posted **Oct 4, 2011, 7:59 PM**

does anyone have any idea what is going on the top of the north face of the medical building? looks like there is going to be a huge sign of some sort!

Vicelord John · #**770** Posted **Oct 23, 2011, 4:31 PM**

They are putting the copper up today, looks like the whole building is going to be covered in it. shiny!

They are working hard on the north extension of the Civic Space park/ ASU student union. The canopy south of the post office is up, the planters are in, and the grid for some sort of patio is laid. I am hoping they will extend some grass to meet the patio and around the east side. It may only be a small addition, but i think it will have a bigger influence and really work to expand where student presence can be felt.

The park extension is coming along great. I talked to one of the workmen. he said it should be done December 16.

Lots of big trees, new canopy and patio, new lighting, extended cement sitting bench like the one in the park.

They are digging the sprinkler system trenches now, so YES, more grass!!!!!

Even though it isn't a huge addition, it seems like it will really open up the park and make it seem even bigger.

Yes, it's working good. No problem at all. I just got it.

Joint Committee on Capital Review meeting, the Downtown SRC project was kept off of the JCCR’s agenda for the last meeting. This setback will almost certainly delay starting construction of the Downtown SRC project.
