70 Years of Service
With over 70 years of service to the community, Veteran’s Stadium has seen its share of renovations, expansions, and repairs over the intervening decades. Since its initial opening, construction technology, materials science, concrete structural design, life safety systems, and universally accessible design norms have dramatically changed. With a project of this size, it would require that the building is brought from its current 1986 code standards to current building code requirements. As a Risk Category III structure, it would be held to some of the highest design standards to ensure public safety. The existing underground utilities are no longer serviceable and need to be replaced.
