ISU Davis Field Renovation

McAlvain provided CM/GC services for the construction of the ISU Davis Field Renovation.  Davis Field, or the Spud Bowl as it has also been known, was originally used as a football stadium hosting its first football game between ISU and Montana State University on Nov. 11, 1936.  Davis Field now hosts Track & Field events and soccer games.  Renovation improvements included widening the soccer field to meet NCAA requirements and creating a 5-foot runout space between the sideline and the track, removing the west and south berms to create much-needed space to co-locate Soccer and Track together, replacing the east bleachers with a terraced grass hillside for informal seating, new track, adding LED lights to extend practice and competition times into the evening, replacing the west bleachers with new aluminum bleachers that provide ADA accessibility, providing a concrete screen wall designed to appear as natural rock around the south and east side to help retain the existing bowl feel of the facility, providing a new video scoreboard that addresses the needs of Track and Soccer events, and designing the entire facility to comply with ISU’s new branding initiative including the track surface and walls.
