About this file

This document is a project overview exhibit for West Virginia University Athletics' West Tower construction initiative at Milan Puskar Stadium. WVU Athletics is undertaking a comprehensive expansion project to replace the existing 1980-constructed, 30,355 gross square foot tower with a new approximately 75,000 gross square foot facility designed to enhance revenue generation through premium seating and amenities. The new West Tower will span five levels and include a VIP concourse with dedicated corporate entry, a 1,000-person club space, a corporate mega-suite with eight founders suites, sixteen luxury suites, and dedicated press, coaching, and operations areas. The project team consists of Barton Malow and March Westin as Construction Manager at Risk (joint venture), with Nation's Group (Legends Global) serving as owner representative. Design documents are scheduled for completion by Fall 2026, with early GMP packages planned for electrical (May 2026), structural steel fabrication (June 2026), demolition (October 2026), MEP and underground utilities (December 2026), and foundations (January 2027). Construction is anticipated to commence in December 2026 and continue through June 2028, with substantial completion targeted for June 30, 2028. The existing tower is scheduled for demolition immediately following the 2026 football season, with temporary facilities to be established for gameday operations during the 2027 football season.

The project will utilize a ConsensusDocs 500 contract structure with a Construction Manager at Risk delivery method employing a Cost-Plus Fee with Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) arrangement. Final GMP development is scheduled for February 2027. This structure aligns with the related West Virginia state and local contract opportunity for construction auditing services, which specifically addresses financial auditing of CM at Risk projects utilizing Cost-Plus Fee with GMP pricing models.

Exhibit B – MPS West Tower Project Overview:

West Virginia University (“WVU”) Athletics is building a new tower on the west side of Milan Puskar Stadium. The Athletic Department is committed to maintaining a competitive edge within our conference and nationally by strategically expanding and diversifying revenue sources through premium seating opportunities. The existing tower was built in 1980 with a series of renovations and expansions through the years and is approximately 30,355 gross square feet. The current tower has twelve (12) premium suites, press accommodations, two (2) coaches booths, two (2) radio booths, a television booth, officials booth, announcers’ booth, game day control center and additional spaces if deemed necessary during design. Due to the age and limitations of the existing tower, the new facility would provide fans with additional opportunities for club seats, ledge seats, loge boxes, and various tiers of luxury suites. The new West Tower could include five (5) levels for fan amenities, premium spaces, media spaces, team coaching spaces and operations totaling approximately 75,000 gross square feet. Through an athletic facility master plan and a market study the following programming and recommendations were provided.

The new tower is expected to include the following:

• Concourse: includes VIP curbside lobby with elevators to each premium level and dedicated corporate suite entry.

• Club: includes a 1,000-person club space, with access to Loges, Ledge, and new chairback seating for club- member patrons.

• Founders: include a Corporate Mega-Suite, and eight (8) Founders Suites.

• Suites: including sixteen (16) luxury suites.

• Press needs: include press, visiting and home coaches’ areas, and the WVU Athletic

Director suite.

The intent is to demo the existing tower immediately after the 2026 football season with the understanding that temporary facilities for overall event operation and some fan seating will need to be in place for gamedays during the 2027 football season.
