Work crews "topped off" the roof on Allegiant Stadium yesterday, "fully enclosing" the Raiders' new $2B facility, according to Mick Akers of the LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL. The final panels for the roof were "installed on the south end of the 65,000-seat stadium, marking the latest major milestone." With the stadium now "completely enclosed, weather is no longer a threat to the interior of the stadium," as rain had "caused minor damage in the past, following a delay in the stadium roof system process." As the roof installation is complete, "landscaping, paving and concrete work and signage and lighting work are occurring around the stadium site," while inside, crews continue to "install seats and the Al Davis memorial torch as well as work on the video board." The stadium "remains on track for the planned July 31 completion date" (LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL, 4/15).
