An early contender as the beacon for Auburn's stadium renovation becoming multi-use, the addition of "Shug's Food Hall," named for former Auburn coach Shug Jordan, will serve as a dining hall by day and an additional concessions hub on Auburn game days.
It'll also include conference and event spaces, retail venues, student activity spaces, and meeting rooms, according to a release, as well the old scoreboard in Jordan-Hare's north end zone, which was replaced by a video board last season.
The sixth floor of Auburn's proposed north end zone facility will create a concourse that fully connects the east and west upper decks of Jordan-Hare Stadium, intending to improve both circulation and access on game days. In it, Auburn's adding further food and beverage services, restrooms and enhanced standing-room areas. It'll also create a dedicated home for pregame eagle flights.

Once completed, the entire 300,000-square-foot facility will add more than 3,000 new and expanded premium experiences while maintaining an existing capacity of more than 88,000 fans. Those premium items will be headlined by more than 50 suite options, with six club and suite options named in a release: Tiger’s Terrace, 1892 Club, 1892 Legacy Club, Heisman Founder’s Club, the Kick Six Field Club and Pat’s Place.

The plaza, which will sit between Jordan-Hare and a to-be-renovated Petrie Hall, was described as "a new front door to both the stadium and campus," designed as a blend of greenspace and brick hard space. It'll also be the primary entry way to Shug's Food Hall.
