I will say I'm impressed with how the zinc is looking however does anyone know if the roof is gonna be white? The reason I ask is because when you're traveling South on Water St. (near The North End Apts), the change from the curved zinc panels to the white roof sticks out. Just doesn't look right, wish I had a picture to better explain. Anyway, any insight?


EDIT: Here you can see it (angle at .04), looking at it from the North.

I was about to say that the whole thing is covered in zinc in the renderings, but when I double checked, there isn't a great angle on the roof and the part you can see does look like it's white. I really hope they're not done with it.

It's white because they're going to put the logo of whatever company buys naming rights on the roof.

I will say it looks a lot better than I thought it would based on the initial drawings. It will look even better once the BC is gone.

The new arena is the only thing I'm excited for these days.

Does this get named by seasons end? Is there any possibility of any event happening there without naming rights?

I think there's a decent chance events occur before naming rights. However, I think naming rights are absolutely in place before the Bucks play there.

Is this a fact or a guess?

That would make sense. This was one of the early renderings:

That's a short amount of time. The first events are scheduled for September and the Bucks will have a preseason game there in early October.

I'd be very surprised if there is no name when the thing is done in August.

So even though the product on the floor will stink, at least the place will double as a half a billion dollar art museum. That's nice.

Has this ever been discussed? Have a ton of people from this board chip in and buy a suite? Then we have a formula to decide who gets what games? Big Kurty and SH could probably pay for it themselves, if they were feeling generous enough.

Twirl's family is part of the Polo/Bridge elite in Hartland so he'll be in a suite.

You're honestly lucky I even talk to you or even acknowledge your existence.

My uncle's girlfriend occasionally rents out a suite at Miller Park too though I haven't been there yet when she has.
