Renovations in Dowdy-Ficklen nearing end

On Monday, East Carolina University athletic director Jon Gilbert gave members of the media a private tour of several newly renovated athletic areas including the new luxury suites and TowneBank Tower in Dowdy-Ficklen stadium.

“It's finally here, we’re excited about it and I think it is really going to transform our game day experience,” Gilbert said.

Although not all of the improvements are completely finished, they are expected to be completed by this coming Friday.

The luxury boxes have several differences spanning from covered outdoor seats and buffet access to a fully air conditioned room with a working fridge, kitchen and bathroom.
