Smith Center Renovation Progressing?
8/25/2009 11:32:00 AM
Poster: steveg202

Search function showed Phase II is supposed to be completed by Sept of 2009.  This would include elimination of the benches and new locker rooms I believe.  Any news on how things are progressing?

Don't know about the Smitty but the Sporting News gave an indication what it will cost for fans in the renovated Pauley Pavilion to purchase their seats for UCLA basketball. Courtside seats require a $500,000 contribution to the capital campaign (though payable over 5 years) and an annual $17,000 per seat donation to the John Wooden Athletic Fund. Wonder if that level gets them in for half-time desserts.

By happenstance, I was speaking to the father of one of my daughter's roommates at her UVa graduation. Turns out he works for, ok sort of owns, the project management firm doing Smith Center. He said it was a very challenging project because of the scheduling. But he also asserted bluntly that they "would get it done." He also said, Poog take note, that he thought GW was some way along the road to an agreement with Arlington to renovate/create an upgraded ballpark for GW baseball. This is pure hearsay but I haven't heard it anywhere on campus. It would be a public facility but one with more controlled access and therefore something that could be maintained at a higher level.

I knew there were elevated conversations about Barcroft but wasn't under such an optimistic impression. It would be a shame if GW couldn't maintain a solid baseball presence. Thanks, rocket. I was sure you were going to be posting about having to settle for seats just behind courtside at Pauley since you also maintain seats at the SC.

I heard this same rumor of sorts, about a new ball field the other day.  What I heard was that negotiations were ongoing for a site in the District of Columbia.  I heard this rumor from the fellow who runs the GW Delicatessen.  Actually, I heard about negotiations for a possible DC site from Bonnie who came to watch a GW baseball game at Barcroft Park.  She mentioned it briefly then got very defensive about it.

The huge, flat roof of Smith Center, covering two-thirds of a city block, is wasted space.  Until such time that the roof is raised to epand the arena capacity, it should be developed for playing or practice fields, tennis courts - something useful!  It's be done all over the country, at NYU, G'town, etc.  And the view would be awesome, which helps with recruits!

Barcroft is an embarrassment to GW baseball.  There are countless better fields in the area that GW should be playing at (Cora Kelly on Rt. 1 seems the most obvious).  It is bad enough they don't have a field at Mt. Vernon (which I guess would at least keep them "on campus").

80% of the high schools in the area have a better facility than Barcroft offers.

No way you could put a baseball field at MV. Takes up too much needed space -- at least 4.5 acres. MV altogether is about 24 or 25 acres I think. It was easy to put the softball field on the corner but they only require about half the space and require less of a buffer zone. We could have given up the soccer/lacrosse field but that's three teams (fall and spring) for one (spring only). That, at least, was an easy decision for Bobby and Jack to make.

Angry George, I remember watching Bobby Bonilla play for the Aleandria Dukes at Kelly field - I think I may have shelled out $2.00.  It's vague, but at some point I think they used Barcroft as well - both fields are on 4 mile run (at opposite ends).

There was another Pops sighting at the GW Deli on Tuesday night.  (God, this is beginning to sound like reports of an alien sighting).  He was there with three NBA players.  My source at the Deli told me the reason for Pops' periodic returns to the GW campus.  It turns out that his younger brother, Benson Mensa-Bonsu, is now a student at GW.  He opted not to participate in college sports, not in basketball, soccer or track.  He came to GW strictly for the academics.  He is involved in a hip-hop record label as a business venture (what he wants to do after college).  He doesn't want any fanfare about being Pops' younger brother. (Maybe I shouldn't have posted this info?).  I am told by my source that Benson has a distinct British accent (as opposed to Pops) and is purportedly quite a nice guy.  He often stops by the GW Deli.

I am beginning to think that the GW Deli is GW's answer to Yale's Morey's.

The front of the court will be facing north. There will be two crow's nests in the renovated Smith Center. With the brighter lighting, the building will now be able to have TV cameras on both sides and more angles to shoot from.

The cosmetic changes to the court are nice, but the updates to the guts of the place (weight room, lockers, academic center) are what's going to bring in the recruits.  The last phase (concessions, eterior) will probably be the most visible to the casual fan.

I agree that standard seats will hurt the student section compared to the benches but in the grander scheme of Smith Center use I imagine it gives the venue greater seating capacity or at minimum, ability to use those seats as tickets to shows, performances etc.

8/20/2009 9:32:00 AM
Poster: GWAlum2001

Adclub,

If I recall correctly the renovations will actually slightly reduce the overall capacity of the Smith Center.  Loss of one set of floor endzone seats (where the new AD club is) and the actual seats on the student side reduces the density there.  The real question is where will the band play?  I also hope they will find a better place for the DJ...all the equipment eposed right were the team comes in from the locker rooms looks really awful. 



8/20/2009 11:07:00 AM
Poster: notta hater

how much $ etc., will it cost to go to the AD Club to watch warm-ups/game?


8/20/2009 11:16:00 AM
Poster: NJ Colonial

The official capacity of Smith Center was 5,000 at the time it was built in 1975 and the movable bleachers in the endzones were added in the Jarvis era.  So seating is still slightly above 5K even with the loss of the west endzone bleachers where the wall has been opened up for the Colonials Club.  The balcony seating behind the two baskets has been epanded for the full length of the east and west sides and I assume that the court level bleachers in the east endzone will remain.

 



8/20/2009 12:00:00 PM

I don't know north from south but the season ticket holders and the students (as well as the teams and scorers and press table) will be switching to the opposite side of the Smith Center from where they were previously located.


8/20/2009 12:18:00 PM
Poster: NJ Colonial

Makes sense, I guess that's why the new center court logo now faces north. 
FYI:  Smith Center: G Street is on the north side,  22nd Street is to the east, F Street is south and 23rd Street/Townhouse Row is west.  The baskets/endzones are east-west.

Just speculating but if the entrance to the AD Club is now at court level and the team still enters from the southwest corner then they likely would want season ticket holders away from the team entrance -- ie the northwest corner.

8/24/2009 9:45:00 PM
Poster: jerseyGWfan

Both upper and lower seats in the student sections will have chair backs similar to the upper end zone sections and the season ticket sides.  The seats are already in and were designed to give a greater "arena" feeling to the building.  They look nice to be honest.  Blue backs in the lower bowl and yellow in the upper bowl.  It gives a much more uniform look to the building.
