Questions on the new practice field???

[WDMHAWKEYE]

I have some question regarding the new practice field. I have read a lot of different things today on this site and other sites.

1. Is the new practice field structure going to include a weight room and the coaching offices?

2. Where the bubble is at now, is that going to turn into parking? Curious because I was wondering if the RV's will park over there when everything is done.

3. I have also heard that the hospital is going to build a new children’s hospital, where is that going up at?

Thanks

From what I remember reading when this was first talked about, the space that will be opened up by tearing down the Bubble will be used for the hospital expansion. Don't know what they're going to do about parking. And I'm not sure what they'll do with the weight room/coaches' offices. This new facility is going to be right across the street, so my guess is that they'll leave that stuff where it is.

I think the bubble space will be hospital employee parking, and the employee parking that is taken away from the Hospital will be used by the Childrens Hospital.

This is my understanding as well. I've also heard talk of a skywalk connecting the parking from the bubble area to the hospital.

I should already know this, as I'm a student and have been living on campus for 2+ years. But where is the employee parking now?

Phase 1 is for the indoor practice facility the rest of the stuff would be in phase 2.
