It’s been a while since we took a look at the arena construction site, but construction is hurrying on as quickly as ever. If (when, rather) you go to Thunder, be sure to check out the progress for yourself.
The scaffolding along River Road is particularly impressive. If you’re going to the Actors Theater viewing party, you’ll have some great views as well. If you’re not, then we’ve got the views just after the click. Concrete formwork to support the north end of the bowl is currently taking shape and jagged diagonal supports hint at the rows of seats that will eventually be installed.
