PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
For the Fall 2017 football season, East Tennessee State University (ETSU) unveiled William B. Greene Jr. Stadium, marking the return of Division I football to campus. As Prime Architect, MHM designed the horseshoe-shaped, true bowl concrete stadium to create an intimate and electrifying game-day experience. The stadium features a 6,600-seat bowl, including 400 luxury skybox seats and a dedicated press level. Home and visiting team locker rooms are housed in the adjacent Bond facility.

The design incorporates a grand arched entryway, artificial turf playing field, chair-backed seating at midfield, and aluminum-backed bench seating throughout the stadium. Modern amenities include concession areas, restrooms, and field maintenance facilities, all enhancing the fan experience.

At the main concourse level, the West Club provides a premium indoor viewing area with gated outdoor seating for alumni. The upper-level features enclosed individual luxury skybox suites, each with hospitality space and operable field-side glass panels for an open-air experience. The President’s Suite shares a hospitality area with an adjoining luxury box, and the press level offers premier views with a dedicated hospitality space.

Nestled between ETSU’s tennis and soccer facilities and the Center for Physical Activity, the stadium integrates seamlessly into campus. Additional structures, including a separate grand entrance arch and two brick-clad concession and restroom facilities, complete the venue.
