(Aliquippa, Pa.) VEBH Architect Dan Egan discussed  the steps  to be taken  prior to the  demolition and construction of a new football stadium at Aliquippa High School Monday night. Egan met with the board, athletic director and some members of the coach staff and the public.  Originally, Egan gave the board a cost estimate of $2.5 million dollars, and Monday night he  reported it could cost $3.4 million dollars. District Superintendent Dr. Phillip K. Woods asked Egan to furnish him with an updated list on the costs involved.. Egan said once all the permits are issued for the project and demolition and construction is done it could take 5 months. The visitors section has been closed  for a few years because it’s not structurally sound.  The stadium is 85 years old, and was built in 1936 and is not up to code.
