Matthew Knight Arena - The Beginning (Doing some welding)

The new Matthew Knight Arena on the University of Oregon campus is now open. It replaces the old MacArthur Court, built in the 1920's. It was time for a new building. This photo was made back at the beginning (Jan 17, 2010), when construction was getting started. Here is a gallery of photos I shot at times while construction was going on - http://www.pbase.com/fotabug/arena_construction

The Oregon men opened the new arena with a win over USC. And the Oregon women were to play Oregon State on Jan. 23rd for their first game there. I was able to attend this game. Attendance was 12,302, a new PAC-10 record for a women's game. Here are some of my photos of that game - http://www.pbase.com/fotabug/uo_womens_game

I don't think I've seen a "welding star" before

Wonderful shot, Vern. I love the bright pink light and the blue umbrellas and how they add to the image.

Seems to be a big job.
