So hinkle used to seat 15k and has been renovated to under 10 k
As the FSU Reno recently shows, if basketball is the objective, renovating the civic centers never works. It doesn’t fit the student seating problem. You just can’t put standing students in front of seated alums at the Joel. The design from the outset prevented any potential saving of the building.
Any renovation, rather than destruction, of the Joel, puts us once again at a huge disadvantage for the next 4 decades.
We can easily afford getting it right this time.
