Florida Atlantic Approved for Stadium
The Florida Board of Governors (BOG) unanimously approved a resolution today authorizing Florida Atlantic University to finance a portion of the construction of a 30,000-seat stadium and associated improvements on its Boca Raton campus.
The planned stadium is the centerpiece of FAU’s Innovation Village, located in the north central area of campus. Home to the Owl football team, the open-air stadium, a $70 million project, is slated to feature 20 luxury suites with 1,000 club seats, and the latest, state-of-the-art amenities. Construction of the project is expected to commence in October 2010 and is anticipated to be completed and available for use in the Fall 2011 semester. To read more, click here.
