Houston Selects DLR Group, PageSoutherlandPage To Design Stadium

Univ. of Houston officials have selected the team of DLR Group and PageSoutherlandPage to design a new $105M football stadium on campus. The facility will have 40,000 seats, 22 suites, 650 club seats and 200 loge box seats. Future phases could expand the building to 60,000 seats. The stadium, constructed on the site of 71-year-old Robertson Stadium, will be ready for the '14 season. DLR Group most recently designed a new 15,000-seat stadium for the UNC-Charlotte, and the firm has previously done work at Florida’s Ben Hill Griffin Stadium and Nebraska’s Memorial Stadium. PageSoutherlandPage, a local firm, has designed other UH campus facilities.
