While renovations include a better concourse area, improvements to restrooms and a new video board, the north end zone is going to be completely revamped. There be upper and lower bowl seating, two concourses and a premium club level.
In total, the renovation project will cost $89 million. It is expected to be completed in time for the 2019 season.
