Love the eblog, and thanks for all the pics. It looks pretty great. One question- why is everything yellow (maize?)? I thought the bricks were going to more of a normal brick color or are they just going to paint them when their done?

Jack,

The yellow material you see is DensGlass exterior sheathing. The product features a moisture-resistant core and enhanced fiberglass mats, instead of paper facings, to resist the effects of moisture exposure during and after construction.

This is used more and more now instead of putting up block work for the walls.

If you looked through some of the other stadium pictures and seen some of the walls have a green look to them that is a rubberized material that is spread on and will help so moisture doesn't make contact to the denseglass material. Makes it waterproof behind the brick.

The brick will look better once it is cleaned up.
