ARROWHEAD STADIUM UPPER BOWL RENOVATION

The Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri is home to the Kansas City Chiefs football team and was in need of some significant repairs. This iconic stadium had a mock-up that was completed in 2018 allowing construction to begin in March of 2019. With such a short timeline, Western Specialty Contractors had up to 80 workers on site at one time and the project was completed in August of 2019 just in time for the football season to begin!
