How much did the renovation of Nippert Stadium cost?
Nippert Stadium is the University of Cincinnati's football and soccer stadium, a site used for football since 1901 whose permanent brick-and-concrete structure was begun in 1915 and completed and dedicated in 1924 after James Gamble donated USD 250,000 in memory of his grandson Jimmy Nippert, with a capacity of 38,088 today. UC Magazine (March 2015) and the athletics site give USD 86 million for the 20-month, privately funded renovation and expansion that finished for the September 2015 home opener, whereas the USD 10.5 million in the Wikipedia infobox and the earlier snapshot, labelled as the 1924 cost, is not supported by any opened source.
