Football season has been in full swing now for the Washington State University Cougars for the last few weeks. But this season for the Cougs is a little different as the team's home, Martin Stadium at Washington State's campus in Pullman has undergone many major renovations all of which began last fall and we're completed before this year's first kickoff.
The remodeling of Martin Stadium began in November of last year and was actually only 1 phase of a 4 phase project that may even be completed by next year's football season,if funding and approval from the WSU Board of Regents comes thru.
Phase 3,the most recent construction work included a new much larger structure on the south side of the stadium. The new area feature a new press box and 21 new luxury suites overlooking the field. New "club seats" which are located below the suites and a new club room which in itself takes up roughly 10,000 square feet and includes a bar area. The project in all includes almost 90,000 square feet of space that was designed by architectural firm, ALSC Architects .
When it is built the next phase ,Phase 4 , will extend the new structure into the west end zone area and have a similar look , cost and build out time. Keep watching for more on this closer to when it gets built.
