RunInRed 12,424 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Have you noticed anything missing around the Auburn sign? New landscape coming soon. @AU_Facilities Crews clear the area around the Samford Hall sign. Flowers will be planted here for your graduation photos. @auburnu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AU80cruiser 1,020 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Not sure if its rumor or fact but I heard the Toomers corner intersection is going to be cobblestoned as well. Any info on that RIR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilstein21 1 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 i thought renderings had it with pavers, and the tiger paw will be a contrasting paver color, so no more paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike4AU 1,654 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 The article stated that colored, inlaid brick would be used in the intersection. There was no mention of cobblestone, unless I missed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was no mention of cobblestone, unless I missed it. Nobody uses true cobblestone any more. Most people refer to brick roadways as "cobblestone".

AuburnNTexas 6,450 Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Thank you for posting these pictures. Those of us who live far away and get few chances to come back really appreciate seeing the campus we love so much. During the fight to save the original trees there was a live camera going it would be nice if they could put that back up permanently so we can see the changes in both the trees and the work in the entrance to Auburn.

AU64 10,122 Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Thanks for the updates...opening the view from the street toward Big Sam is great improvement .....and in past years Samford has gained a lot of notoriety as thee pictorial symbol of AU. There was a time when I was in school that the building was in poor condition and barely visible from the street.. JMO but the ice storm some years back did us a favor and the landscaping people have done an outstanding job to turn the building and front lawn into a show piece.
