I think the Bruins are building a practice facility in the same complex, hopefully BC can benefit from that in some capacity since a hockey practice rink (despite being the most deserved ammenity) will never happen at BC.

I drive past this area all the time. A couple of years ago it was a bunch of really ugly empty buildings, now you have the New Balance office building, the Bruins facility, and soon the Celtics facility. The area has improved quickly.

The consultants are running due diligence on various rendering firms (Bates doesn't take on this work himself - he's more of a "big picture" guy). Our next round of renderings will be so detailed that you will be able to make out eepstein sitting in the front row, weeping.

For the IPF or any construction? If the permits and the funding are in hand like they say, the baseball field should be under construction right now. Bates is a clown.

Well the new Plex is starting now-ish as Edmonds comes down very soon (or maybe already has). He said construction for all announced projects will begin at the latest after next year's graduation.

This is a bit OT in re: to the Plex/IPF, but I found it an interesting read and something that should resonate with decision makers at BC

http://www.hok.com/thought-leadership/nate-appleman-on-making-the-most-of-small-stadium-spaces/

Edit: Also found this on the same site, work this firm did for Ohio States FB locker room. Please BC admin start slashing sports and upgrade the facilities, this blows anything BC has out of the water
