The University of Tennessee is getting set to begin a project to improve one of the most iconic stadiums in college football.
The school has joined with Populous, a sports architecture and design team that operates globally, to come up with a detailed plan to renovate Neyland Stadium.
According to Tennessee’s official website, the project will include “a facility and technology assessment, new conceptual designs, a market feasibility study, cost estimations, and a financial and funding analysis,” and it will mainly focus on upgrades to the south and east sides of the venue.
It will also involve everything from making the restrooms bigger to adding video displays and upgrading the sound system.
With an official capacity of 102,455, Neyland Stadium is the 5th-largest football stadium in the United States.
