That's what I was thinking. Maybe it's not about height, but about getting things from one end to the other without having to move the base as much?

I know nothing about it though

So if that was the pump house then that new building to the side is probably the replacement.

If I recall correctly, in-stadium improvements come in the next phase.

The pumps are housed entirely in the small enclosure behind the goal post, at field level. Not sure what that particular monolith was.

Major new digging in the "front" portion on the left hand side. Several thin pilings are now visible.

They're creating a second, lower level. Pretty mesmerizing to watch.

They must have poured those while the new dirt was in place. I wonder if they're supposed to support the front of the EZF
