I.U. School Trustees Look At Renovating Assembly Hall
(BLOOMINGTON) - Indiana University trustees have been briefed on the options for renovating Assembly Hall.
Architect Jim Edson of Kansas City firm HOK Sports presented three ways the 35-year-old basketball stadium could be made more fan friendly. Among the possibilities are expanded sideline and behind-basket seating, the addition of club and suite levels, and the removal of the balcony section.
The options range in cost from $6.5-million to $35-million. However, they could also be combined for a cost of up to $73-million. That would be in addition at least $42-million of necessary facility improvements.
Despite the many possibilities offered, trustee Tom Reilly, Jr., none of Edson's solutions solve the fundamental problem that many of Assembly Hall's seats are simply not good for watching basketball.
