ISU announces plans for CYTown

News, Sports

September 19th, 2022 by Ric Hanson

(Radio Iowa) – Iowa State officials unveiled plans for a major development on the grounds of the Iowa State Center between Jack Trice Stadium and Hilton Coliseum. CYTown will include a hotel and convention center, a medical clinic as well as restaurant, retail and office space.

That’s I–S-U athletic director Jamie Pollard, who says they will seek approval from the Board of Regents for phase one of the project in November. 

Iowa State athletics took over the Iowa State Center three years ago. Pollard says in total it is about a 20-year project and they hope to have some of the restaurant and retail operations up and running by the Fall of 2025.

Pollard says work will begin following approval by the Board of Regents.

The target for completion of the parking lot improvements and infrastructure is August 2025. The university plans to seek final approval from the Board of Regents later this fall to begin work on the project in January 2023.

UNI-Dome roof getting new fabric

News, Sports

September 19th, 2022 by Ric Hanson

(Radio Iowa) – One of the key structures on the University of Northern Iowa campus in Cedar Falls is going to get an update to its roof. U-N-I vice president Michael Hager says the fabric portion of the UNI-dome roof is going to be replaced.

The UNI-dome was built in 1976 and the original roof was all fabric and held up by air. The building hosts the high school football playoffs, U-N-I football games, and many other events. Hager spoke to the Board of Regents during their meeting last week and says they are looking at two types of fabric that have the benefit of making things brighter inside.

He says the new fabric will have a brown color when it is installed.

This new product is projected to last 20 to 25 years.

Hager says the fabric does not require a lot of ongoing maintenance.

The Board of Regents approved the eight-million dollar budget for the replacement, which also includes some other related work on the building. Hager says the project will be paid for mostly with gift funds — but some university funds will also be included as well as athletic department funds.

Iowa beats Nevada and the weather

Sports

September 18th, 2022 by Ric Hanson

A strange start to the season took a bizarre turn for Iowa as the Hawkeyes beat Nevada 27-0, a game that was halted three times due to lightning and did not end until after 1:30 Sunday morning. Hawkeye coach Kirk Ferentz says the locker room looked like a baseball clubhouse during the more than four hours of delays.

The offense made progress, in part because receivers Nico Ragaini and Keegan Johnson returned from injury.

The Hawkeyes open Big Ten play Saturday night at Rutgers.
