It was a year ago Tuesday that dirt excavation began at the site of the $1 billion, 80,000-seat stadium that is scheduled to completed for the 2009 season.
On Monday, workers installed the first of more than 3,000
precast concrete risers to which the stadium seats will be mounted.
It will take 16 months to install all the seating risers, which will have a total weight of nearly 30,000 tons.

construction manager for the Cowboys. "We couldn't ask for a
