I walked over the newly deconstructed East Stadium bridge over State Street today on my way to work. Here's a short set of video clips of that journey, with notes taken along the way of events happening in town.

(0:00) The view from the East Stadium Bridge shows the new Al Glick Field House and the University of Michigan football practice fields.

(0:15) The condition of the sidewalk over the East Stadium bridges is appalling, with exposed steel and rough surfaces.

(0:30) An End Road Work sign blocks the sidewalk in front of the University of Michigan commuter parking lots.

I rode a University of Michigan bus into town, not pictured.

Hill Auditorium is beautiful in the morning. Patti LuPone comes to Hill Auditorium on Nov. 20 to perform her career retrospective, “Coulda, Woulda, Shoulda.” The University of Michigan Men's Glee Club 150th Annual Fall Concert is Nov. 21.

(0:56) Oak trees planted 2004 in memory of J. Paul Raeder, a member of the Michigan football team from 1957 to 1961. He was the leader of "Raeder's Raiders", a bunch of bench warmers who played as a third unit in a "wild, hell-bent style" profiled in John U. Bacon's story on Michigan Radio on Nov. 6.
