The new east stands will provide 360-degree sights of the field and the surrounding Hudson Valley. The seats will also be behind the Army cadets’ seating section. The renovations will be carried out in a process that permits the football and lacrosse teams to continue to play in the stadium while construction is underway.
“Designing for military installations comes with its complexities. In addition, our team developed a detailed logistics plan that will keep Michie Stadium open for football and lacrosse during construction,” said Luigi Morfea, Construction Executive, Turner Construction Company. “We are excited to begin work on this historic site and work with the Army and our partners to provide a special place for fans to take in the game and the Hudson Valley surroundings.”
The project broke ground in April 2024 with the demolition of the existing east stands.
