OT: Rutgers Plans to Demolish Ford Hall

Whatever renovation is done in and around The Barn and Student Center, they need to find an awesome way to memorialize the first intercollegiate football game.

I like the idea of going back to a grassy field as the centerpiece.

If they were going to memorialize it , shouldn’t they have done that by now?

Sure, but if they're gonna knock down structures that have been partially covering the original field (along with some of that parking lot), then it would be a good time to consider a redesign of the property to include a proper homage to the birthplace of college football.

Kind of interesting, this was an early concept of what Livingston might look like (before they built the apartments and the new Business school) with redevelopment. Those front buildings are the business school, a conference center, and hotel.
 
There was also talk of an ice skating rink on Livingston.Anyone know the current status of these projects on Livingston? And at some point,we REALLY need a baseball stadium that is not a joke like we have now.And no,I don't have 40 million to donate. lol
 
Back to the comments about dorms,I was told that new dorms are coming to Cook. Some will be new,some will be additions to current buildings,and some will be current ones that will be renovated. Applications and visits by prospective students are going through the roof.
