Discussion planned on University of Oregon arena project

Daily Journal of Commerce (Portland, OR), Sep 19, 2008

The Willamette Valley Chapter of the Construction Specifications Institute will hold a panel discussion on the University of Oregon basketball arena project.

The event will feature Hoffman Construction project manager Matt Swaim, TVA Architects' Mark Labadie and JMI Sports representative Pete Roberts. The panel will discuss key planning, design and construction issues as the arena project moves forward.

Designed by TVA Architects, the new arena will be 405,000 square feet with 12,500 seats and a $200 million price tag. Though contractors hope to begin construction by the end of November, the university has yet to acquire an alley and street parcel needed to build the arena.

The meeting will be held at 4:30 p.m. at the Eugene Hilton, 66 E. Sixth Ave. Contact Tana Baker at tbaker@chambersconstruction.com.
