The
Challenge
After winning five straight football state championships, Lake Travis High School began work on a complete renovation of their football stadium. This renovation included a new artificial turf field, sound system and
scoreboard.
To culminate the renovation, Lake Travis needed a new
press box with space for TV and radio broadcasters, as well as space for the home and visiting coaching staff. This new press box also needed to complement the aesthetic appeal of the rest of the stadium.
The
Solution
American Press Box partnered with Whitley Manufacturing to provide Lake Travis High School with a two-story press box with a reinforced roof deck area to film from. The interior of the press box has a simple, yet highly functional layout that provides multiple separated spaces for every need.
Through the use of modular manufacturing processes, the press box was built off-site and then assembled at the stadium within a matter of hours. The end product is a stylish and inventive press box of superb quality that will see several more generations of championship winning teams.
