Bowers Stadium, home of the Sam Houston football team, reached a major milestone in its road to completion Thursday.
In a traditional topping out ceremony, university and local officials watched with members of the Construction team as a crane lifted the final structural beam to the highest point of the stadium’s new, state-of-the-art press box.
The press box serves as the focal point of the Bowers renovation project. It’s five stories will feature:
- Ground Level: Main lobby, ticket office and a Bearkat apparel shop.
- Concourse Level: Expanded public restrooms and concessions, easily accessible to fans.
- Club Level: A two-story lounge offering catering, beverage service and access to an outdoor balcony with prime views of the field.
- Suite Level: 12 spacious luxury suites, complete with catering and access to the double-height club lounge below.
- Press Level: Film deck, control room, game day operations center, coaches’ suites, a suite for the visiting athletic director and dedicated press areas.
