  7. Yale University Facilities The Yale Bowl • The Yale Bowl opened in 1914 for the Yale-Harvard football game. The Bowl has hosted professional football, World Cup soccer, and the 1995 World Special Olympics Games. The stadium covers 12.5 acres and can hold 65,000 fans. The Bowl is 930 feet long by 750 feet. When the stadium was built, horse drawn vehicles moved 320,000 cubic feet of earth to create the Bowl shape which was formed with 22,000 cubic yards of concrete and 470 tons of steel. There is approximately 30 miles of wooden-backed seats. The entire stadium cost $750,000 (The Ohio Stadium highlighted in the Big Ten chart above cost $1.3 million to build in 1922) and has undergone several renovations including a new scoreboard in 1958, a press box in 1986 and a new field in 1993.

  8. Yale University Facilities Coxe Cage • Coxe Cage is the home to Yale’s men's and women's indoor track teams which was originally constructed in 1928 at a cost of $300,000 and renovated in the early 1980s. The Cage (356 feet by 156 feet) has an 83-foot ceiling and reportedly one of the largest skylights ever built (26,000 square foot). There is approximately 3.3 million cubic feet of air space in the structure. All indoor track and field events are held within the oval Cage, including throwing events (“Coxe Cage,” 2002). Yale Tennis Center • The tennis complex at Yale includes 22 outdoor Deco Turf II courts, five outdoor clay courts, four indoor Deco Turf II courts, and a 15,000-seat, one court, tennis stadium. The stadium is the fourth largest in the world, and third largest in the United States. Each August, The Pilot Pen International Tournament is played on the outdoor courts. In addition to the outdoor courts there is an indoor tennis center with four courts (Bialik, 1998).

  10. Site Selection Issues Site issues may include: • -Detailed geography (soil, subsoil, vegetation) • -Population composite (demographics of area) • -Constituency representation (political clout) • -Flood area (drainage, runoff) • -Climate, precipitation, winds, natural disaster strikes (i.e. hurricane paths, tornadoes, earthquakes, floods, etc.) • -Capital Improvement Plan maps (illustrating current and planned projects by council district) • -Enterprise zone ownership and land use maps • -Acreage (adequate for buildings, parking, picnic areas, etc.) -Additional acreage for expansion, • -Shape (acute angles or odd shapes are possible wasted space. • -Topography (level terrain, steep slopes) • -zoning regulations (permit required, parking, setbacks, etc.) • -access (from principal roads, local streets, truck-or bus access) • -security considerations

  11. Site Selection Issues Following the selection of a proposed site, the following features of the site plan should be considered: • Off-site nuisances (for example; rivers, sewage treatment plants, industries) • Safety factors (roads, buffer zones, sight-lines, emergency access) • Proper drainage for turf and hard-surface areas (flood zone area) • Fencing and planting to serve as separation of areas • Placement of service building for safety, control and supervision (access for vehicles) • Layout of walkways for safe and efficient circulation (must meet ADA requirements) • Lighting of fields, courts and general areas • Cost of maintenance (preventative and corrective) • Provision of first-aid facilities, equipment and supplies • Advantage should be taken of existing topographic features, trees and vegetation • Accessibility and use of the site for the aging and disabled, and • Use of durable and vandal-proof materials and equipment.

  12. Site Selection Issues Various factors that go into making a final decision include: • Review of feasibility studies (economic and political impact) • Permits (lease, license or letter) • Site information (environnemental issues) • Regulations (building codes, health ordinances etc.) • Community involvement • Financing (public or private) • Easements • Zoning (cluster, flood-plain, open-space) • Restrictive covenants • Aesthetic value and, • Recreational opportunities

  13. Site Selection Process The following diagram highlights all the various issues that impact the site location decision. Site Selection Criteria Suitability of Site Competitive Forces Special Restrictions Alternative Locations Location/Land Site Development Concerns Lease vs. Purchase Tax Implications Mission and Goals Government Regulations Valuation Concerns Neighbor Concerns

  14. Environmental Issues • Need to check soil- soil samples or core drilling • Check grading to make sure the site is useable • Check environmental issues and endangered animals

  15. Buying vs. leasing • What is the best option? • Perform an economic impact analysis

  16. Features • What features would you most like to include in your ideal NBA arena? • Draw a rough layout of the arena.
