Iowa to Begin Kinnick North End Zone Project
Iowa athletic director Gary Barta outlined summer activity on the nearly 90 million Kinnick Stadium north end zone project run by JE Dunn Construction. Work starts underground on drain tile and infrastructure while brick field walls are replaced before 2017. Fan experience remains unchanged in 2017 with temporary changes planned for 2018 and the project finishing in 2019. The turf design is not finalized and a midfield Tigerhawk remains a possibility.
