6:46Now PlayingThe next era of Denver's football stadium is about to begin.
The Denver Broncos are progressing on more than $100 million in upgrades to their home, Empower Field at Mile High.
The construction project, which began after the Broncos' season ended in January, is the single-largest capital improvement in the stadium's 22-year history. The renovation work will make improvements to Empower Field's suites, technology, concessions, the Broncos Team Store and elevators.
The most visible part of construction is the expansion of the south scoreboard by 70%.
When complete by the start of the NFL season in August, the Broncos' main videoboard will rank as the fourth-largest single scoreboard in an NFL stadium at 72 feet high and 225 feet wide.
In January, the Broncos removed the fiberglass horse, Bucky the Bronco, that stood watch over the current and former stadium since 1975. The 27-foot-tall horse was lifted by crane from atop the South Stands scoreboard at Empower Field at Mile High and safely stored during construction. Bucky was added back to the scoreboard once the video screen was nearly doubled in height.
