WATCH: Arkansas begins demolition in north end zone of Razorback Stadium
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Arkansas’ $160 million renovation of Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium is now well underway.
The latest update is the demolition of the Frank Broyles Athletic Center in the north end zone. The facility is being reconstructed to increase seating capacity to nearly 77,000, enclose the north end zone and add club and suite seating.
Arkansas’ Board of Trustees approved the plan last June. Renovations are expected to be completed in time for the 2018 season.
Here’s a time-lapse video of the demolition on Tuesday:
