VarcoMac
is proud to be a part of the expansion and renovation of Tyser
Tower. The work will add an additional 66,000 square feet
to the existing structure. VarcoMac will work alongside other
contractors to build the five story tower, which will include
64 luxury suites, a full-service kitchen, television and radio
booths, a lounge in the press box, new shopping areas, a new
scoreboard, and additional seating for stadium-goers. Visit

| What’s
Going On Now?: |
Soon
you’ll be able to see for yourself, thanks to a webcam
provided by Clark Construction. As of March, 2008, the old
Tyser Tower still stands. Metal framework for the side additions
is being assembled piece by piece with the help of a sky crane.
VarcoMac is working on the buried electrical lines (called
a duct bank) that supply power to the stadium. As soon as
the framework is set and the concrete is poured, the real
work for VarcoMac will begin. Then it will be time to install
power distribution equipment, conduit and wire. The corresponding
photos show the sky crane and the east end of Tyser Tower
and the duct bank that VarcoMac has been working on. Check
back often to track the progress of this exciting project! |
