quote:The limestone facade is in line with what fans wanted because it screams Kentucky. Same was done to the exterior of Commonwealth. It creates continuity. The red brick and white trim is more in line with the heart of campus around Euclid and Rose. Most everything on the stadium end is like exterior of Kirwan and Blanding. Have you been on campus recently at all? The sheer amount of construction makes it at times unrecognizable. I shed a tear when I go by where K - lair once stood....spicy chicken and biscuits are no more!
I wish theyd kept it more in line with the classic red brick/white trim theme from the rest of the campus. But overall a very cool new facility. Glad to see it.

Actually no, its been a few years since I graduated. Havent been back to campus since Commonwealth was redone. Heard a bunch of new dorms went up too.
I've been back to Lex a few times for weddings and family events, but they were whirlwind trips with no time for bumming around campus. Thinking about taking a long weekend to go to Keeneland this fall though.
