Northwestern to Rebuild Ryan Field
« on: September 24, 2021, 12:27:41 AM »
NU is receiving a $480M donation from the Ryans for academic purposes and for reconstruction of Ryan Field. It appears they will rebuild the stadium. It does not sound like a mere update, but then an architect has not been hired. 
It appears they will play at a different venue during reconstruction, but they do not say where. I believe the other suitable venue for Big Ten football in Chicago is in the space ship.

Interesting, that obviously is a large donation for an athletic venue.

I love those vintage photos of people all dressed up at football games. Suits and hats for men, women in fur-lined coats.
