The Rams Come Home
Making History
The CSU Rams played their first football home game of 2017 “at home” with the debut of the new $220 million on-campus stadium. The stadium has a capacity of 41,000 and enhances the game-day experience through expanded tailgating options, state-of-the-art video and sound systems, premium seating, and first-class concessions. The project also included an $18.5 million addition for academic classrooms, academic advising offices, and the Iris and Michael Smith Alumni Center.
Funds within the overall budget were used to cover the cost of a new $3 million outdoor practice facility next to the stadium, which allowed the school to turn over the former practice fields to the women's soccer program.
Services Provided
CAA ICON was hired in 2012 to conduct a feasibility study, which ultimately proved that an on-campus stadium was feasible. After gaining necessary approvals, CAA ICON provided the full scope of Project Management services.
