There are stainless panels installed on the northside. Saw them yesterday.


Dang it, I always miss them somehow!  Tonight I drove past the west side, after having driven by the east side and not seeing any...

Are they playing musical chairs with the stainless???  I want to see it!


The east side is almost completely covered in the panels.  But they don't exactly look like stainless; I think they have some kind of protective covering on them.


All I've seen is those blackish wall panels. I'll have to look again.

Those blackish wall panels are the stainless panels ya goob. The black is just the plastic protective covering put on for transportation and construction purposes. Kind of like when you get a new electronic device it often has that clear or blue piece of plastic on the shiny metal or glass parts ya have to pull off. Except in this case on a bit larger scale.[:P] Perhaps they will do a big "reveal" and pull the plastic off all at once. Can you imagine the remote this shiny new toy will have?[8D]

The stainless panels are on the north side of the arena, facing 1st Street. They go on over the larger panels covered in black plastic.

Yeah, my cousin and I started at the CC parking garage (last time it wasn't open, so we couldn't go to the top) and moved up to 3rd and Denver, then we moved to 1st and Elwood.

Much more pleasant morning than the one we did last August, during the heat wave.  It was muggy though.

Also, if you want to see them in order as I took them, visit the set.  I'm not real thrilled with the way Flickr sorts photostreams.
