Carl Smith Center
No longer just a vision, the Carl Smith Center, home of
David A. Harrison III Field at Scott Stadium, is a facility
befitting Virginia's stature as one of the nation's elite
Division I-A football programs. Featuring many enhanced
amenities and a distinctive architectural appearance all
its own, the stadium is designed to create the ultimate
gameday experience for the players, coaches, fans and
media. The renovated stadium was dedicated at UVa's 2000
season opener against Brigham Young on September 2.
Following a landmark $25 million challenge grant from UVa
alumnus Carl W. Smith in June of 1997, the University of
Virginia embarked on an ambitious three-year plan to
renovate existing Scott Stadium and increase its capacity
to over 60,000. The project was completed at a cost of
approximately $86 million, with the balance coming from
additional fundraising and incoming generated by the
stadium.
Suites
During the final phase of the stadium renovation project in
the summer of 2000, 44 luxury suites were completed in the
south end of the stadium. A total of 12 additional luxury
suites were constructed on the northeast and northwest
sides of the stadium for the 2001 season.
