Looks fantastic IMO:

Interesting that they have gone with a Darkness on the Edge of Town look for the beams and ceiling. Old WRA had dirty white, seems like they are trying to focus attention on the playing floor. I like the architectural theme of the classic trusses.

It also seems like the upper tier seats are at a much steeper angle than the lower bowl. Will enhance the feeling of fans on top of the floor. This place will be unique and fantastic.

Let's get Bruce Springsteen to sing the national anthem for our first game there.
Bruce's daughter graduated from Duke. Chris Collins probably has connections to The Boss. I'll sent Morty a suggestion note.

Glad we got Elgin Community College as our opponent for the first game. I guess the Washington Generals were unavailable.

What am I missing? No picture and no link to be found on my screen.

The tweet that was embedded in the original post was deleted along with the pictures. Likely the person was not supposed to be sharing pictures of the facility at this time.

What is so dumb about that is that the the same views are available on the NU facilities page. Well maybe not the view that shows the scoreboard is HUGE!

Here is a screen grab of the live cam. Looks like the court is coming along nicely. And yes, the scoreboard looks huge.

NU is also constantly improving the 3D rendition on the ticket site. You can now clearly see where the aluminum flooring will end. They also have a 3D version of Ryan Field you can look at.

Can you provide a link? I don't see this on the ticket site.

Not surprisingly, it looks like they're going with the same court design as the last few years.
