In the past, the University of New Orleans was even unable to host NCAA Division I events due to the lack of infrastructure. However, the times have changed as UNO unveiled its ambitious $19 million plans for a cutting-edge hospitality facility and a state-of-the-art track and field stadium. Here's what you need to know about the exciting capital projects green-lit by state authorities.

Track and field stadium for intercollegiate athletics

The University of New Orleans’ transformation includes a $13 million track and field stadium, poised to be a state-of-the-art facility. A number of additions, including a soccer-size field, a 9-lane track, and even a press box, will become a part of the multi-million dollar stadium.

UNO's plans to educate leaders in Hospitality

Another highlight of the project is the construction of a $6 million hospitality facility. This new facility is set to become the pride of UNO’s Lester E. Kabacoff School of Hotel, Restaurant, and Tourism Administration.
