The 321,500-sq.ft. stadiums, is designed to host not only football but also competitions in soccer and lacrosse, as well as civic events. An airy, sunlit concourse separates the outer section, known as the wall building, from the seating and contributes to the sense of public space. The wall building wraps 27,800 seats with the familiar U-shape that was so emblematic of the old, 45,000-seat Palmer Stadium. But with the corner seating removed, and spaces filled with trees and plazas, the new facility provides a more intimate viewing experience. Rooms within the wall building provide space for classes, offices, a rehearsal hall for the marching band and other uses. The stadium features state-of-the-art media and team rooms, as well as a president's box with breathtaking views of the campus.

VDA provided full consulting services through construction administration for the installation of one (1) standard in-ground hydraulic elevator in the facility.
