Background
In 2012, Tindall was given the challenge of creating an awe-inspiring entrance to the Louisiana State University Tiger Stadium Plaza. This major focal point on campus was constructed using Tindall’s architectural precast concrete. 21 pylons, ranging from approximately 25-40 feet tall were placed around the entrance to the stadium, creating a memorable gateway for all visitors.
The revamping of the outside of Louisiana State University’s Tiger Stadium consisted of three phases of construction. For their portion of the project, Tindall created 21 pylons to act as gateways and ticket collection areas. Tindall also created a memorial within the entrance that honors players from throughout the school’s history, for achievements like National Championships. The architectural precast pylons at Louisiana State University’s Tiger Stadium were completed within a tight schedule, on a constricted site, with major architectural exposure.
““Tindall and Mac Freeman did an excellent job from start to finish on our very large LSU Tiger Stadium architectural precast pylons. On our very aggressive timeline, they were punctual, well-coordinated, displayed quality craftsmanship, and performed within budget...Both the owner and architect were happy with Tindall’s product. Without hesitation, we would recommend Tindall for any future architectural precast projects.””
