Almost 70,000 tickets were sold for a stadium envisioned for only 55,000 spectators, and 200 fans were injured as thousands tried to force entry. If you're building a house, you should be buying by the sling. Too, you should be buying from a real lumber yard and not a big box. By my feeble memory, and calculation; current prices are ~20-25% above pre-Covid prices.

The grandstand offers rooms that are for meetings, conventions and other events in external markets.

Best insulation doesn t have studs that touch outer & inner walls.
Best insulation doesn't have studs that touch outer & inner walls. NEXT, no matter where you live, even if code allows it, don't build with 2×4's. You should be building with AT LEAST 2×6's for the ability to crank up the insulation, to cut down on the cost of electricity, gas or whatever you'll be using, none of which is going down in the future either. And there is just that it's nice to be able to coast a bit when power goes down. Covid pricing sorta changed that gentle upswing in pricing.

Have no idea what the "shortage" is, but a guy that runs a small sawmill not too far from here told my mother about a month ago he has not been, nor will he be, cutting lumber. Seems like a foolish decision with prices so high but she mentioned he seemed "angry" about it when he told her that. Perhaps the lumber places like Lowe's and Home Depot are not purchasing much in order to keep prices artificially high? I say "artificially high" because although I know complex economics are in play, there is no shortage of sawmills nor trees right now. An attorney I know who has hundreds of acres of pines he sells off of said pines are as plentiful as they ever were. The Waldstadion from 1991 to 2007, with a few interruptions, was home stadium for the NFL Europa's Frankfurt Galaxy American Football team.
