There are lots of things you can put/paint on there that will look neato

Like a light colored brick dorm

Or infield grass if your the Lynchburg Hillcats back in the early 90's

Here's a photo Les Schofer sent me today. The markings are where the prayer took place. In today's terms its where the message board is on 460 right as you enter campus. Maybe we can get a memorial marker there or something similar to the photo at the monogram showing the "before"

Incredible. Not only shows how the mountain has changed, but look at Wards road as well.

PAMedic-- Check out 00:27 of this video. I'm not sure if the V-shaped building we see is all the library or if it's the library plus a future building that will be connected. With that in mind, it looks like what you see on the right might be a retaining wall for either that future building / soon-to-be-constructed wing of the JFL.

Rogers3-- I've been wondering about that too. I seem to recall that the contract with Norfolk-Southern specified that both the pedestrian and car tunnels to Wards needed to be completed within a year of each other without LU having to go through an additional approval process, so that would mean that the car tunnels would need to be done in the next 3 or 4 months, if I'm not mistaken.

Does the school own the land across from the airport entrance, next to Springhill Suites? It looks like they're starting to build something there, so I didn't know if it was LU-related or some commercial project.

Do you mean the land behind the Huge sign that says"Hampton Inn Coming soon?" (which has been there for over a year)
