Looks as if some of the scoreboard is going in too.

Maybe it's been answered but, what are the rectangular indents in the front wall for?

Or cutouts for future electrical outlets.

Shot from inside - the difference in video board size is really something!

You really can’t see the Video Board work on the Wellness Center Cam anymore. The Wellness Center construction is now blocking it. I thought the Wellness Center was only going to be two stories tall. Didn’t realize it is four.

Some good Reser tidbits from the Gazette-Times:
"The new video board will be substantially larger than the old one, which was incorporated within an older scoreboard. The screen will be 15 feet taller than before, and the entire length of the screen will be used for video.
“It’s going to seem so much bigger,” Bucher said.
Because of the project, seating and parking for the upcoming season will both be reduced, although Bucher hopes the impact on parking will be minimal. The stadium will have a capacity of 26,407 this season. In 2021, Oregon State averaged just over 30,500 in attendance with a single-game high of 35,129 against Stanford.
When the project is complete, capacity will be just over 38,000, Bucher said. But that number is flexible. There are large open areas on the concourse that can be adapted as necessary.
“As we think about the rivalry game with Oregon and other big games, we want to be able to flex and add some more seats and get more people in the building,” Bucher said."

Well I have just learned something very unfortunate about the new video board. It seems that the new LED video board will not be complete until after the Boise State game… Very VERY Unfortunate…. Source?

There are multiple boom lifts working on it currently - hopefully that's not the case.

Anyone know why the Reser 2 webcam(the one showing the northern back corner of the west side) is not updated/working? It still has the image of aug 9th?

Source? It was a marching band member who was told by someone in the athletic dept. Apparently the athletics dept person who told the marching band member wasn’t very up to date or informed about what the construction schedule. The update word is that the scoreboard will be finished by aug 20th.
