The fences came down quietly last week. Opening celebrations are being anticipated for Spring 2026.

Some final requirements for electrical before the utility can connect power. Not lit at night = not open for safety reasons. Some other minor items not yet complete (signage, NQ-branded 'Beacons', bollards), but won't stop the fences from coming down. The real question (and I just can't...

You're missing the broader context of how this initiative aligns with the Campus Master Plan. This park represents the first step in a multi-phased, multi-decade strategy for campus expansion.

It's such a tight work site. Must be some masterful JIT planning going on there.
