Cowboys Stadium GC, Architect Team Up for Green UNT Stadium
Dallas-based HKS designed the $78-million University of North Texas stadium in Denton, marking the firm’s first foray into collegiate football stadiums and teaming up with Dallas-based Manhattan Construction. The two firms worked together as key players on the new Cowboys Stadium in Arlington. Construction is under way and the UNT stadium is slated for a fall 2011 kick-off, HKS Vice President John Brooks tells Texas Construction.
The stadium will be a sustainable facility that is LEED certifiable. “As the Mean Green, we took that to heart,” Brooks says.
