Martin Horn has carried out more than $10 million
in specialized construction projects at UVa's
state-of-the art football stadium, Scott Stadium,
in the Carl Smith Center. These include the scoreboard,
President's Box, and Press Boxall technically
challenging jobs. The scoreboard, erected under
time pressure before the first game of the 1998
season, sits on a 100-foot high steel tower and
includes a giant video screen and sound system.
The President's and Press Boxes were both constructed
as part of a major stadium expansion. They were
built within the upper deck of the old stadium,
where it was impossible to use a crane. Martin
Horn also finished the stadium's more than 40
beautiful luxury suites.
