Reser Stadium. A Year and a Half in Review


On this eve of the first game in the new Reser Stadium, I thought this would be a good time to reflect on how far we have come. Thankfully, the structural engineer who posted those amazing pictures from the roof of Reser is back. Aaron Burkhardt, otherwise known as zendiggo on Flickr, has posted an older set of Reser Stadium construction pictures from when the towers first went up.

Thanks to Aaron for another set of great pictures!


Of course, you might be wondering what other people think of the new expansion. Aaron also turned me on to a Portland Architecture blog that had a post about the new Reser:

Raising Reser…to Autzen’s Knees

Can’t say I agree with him. Feel free to make your opinion know Beaver Nation.


I’m sure you’ve seen this before, but it’s worth a reminder. Each Reser Stadium webcam has a time-lapse movie of the entire life of the Raising Reser project. The timeline is from June 1st, 2004 to yesterday.
