nodak651 Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 I really hope they move non football stuff to this new building and they keep football in the HPC. Quote

We are saving a long-cherished landmark while upgrading our athletic facilities at the same time and cutting the cost of the upgrades. It's a rare win-win. 1 Quote
SIOUXFAN97 Posted December 15, 2020 Posted December 15, 2020 wonder if they will repurpose some of the old brick and mortar pieces to fill in the half circle wall on the south like to make it look like the wall on the north side with the old iron gate....the old chain link is garbage. 1 Quote

Grand Forks still has bills to pay and what doesn't come from commercial taxes will come from residential ones. Expand I agree. I deleted most of my post because I don't want to drift the thread off topic, but It is def a dilemma because we want Grand Forks to grow and compete with Fargo and other cities, at the same time, we obviously need tax revenue, and IMO tax incentives unfairly disadvantage small contractors, as larger companies typically benefit. In this situation I think it makes sense though, since UND, a public entity, is a major stakeholder. 1 Quote

Sioux94 Posted January 28, 2021 Posted January 28, 2021 They should also keep some of the old original brick and use it as a fund raising type of thing. Some people may want to buy one of those old bricks for a few bucks a brick, this may have already been mentioned. 1 Quote

Expand You are "looking" west. There is a brick wall depicted on the south. That may be your old bricks.
