I've lived in Texas all my life, and the size of everything here never ceases to amaze me, especially the schools. So, I was wondering, what's the most expensive high school facility in our Lone Star State?
The most expensive high school stadium in Texas - indeed, in the whole country - is said to be Legacy Stadium. This venue, located in Katy, is home to the Katy Independent School District. It was built at a staggering cost of $72 million, making it the most expensive high school stadium in the United States.
Legacy Stadium can hold 12,000 spectators and is part of a larger complex which includes a second stadium and an agricultural sciences center. The idea behind its construction was to create a space that would cater to a fast-growing student population and ease a packed schedule for sports and events. Meticulous care was taken during the design phase to ensure it offers an unforgettable experience for student-athletes and spectators alike.
Hope you find this information as awe-inspiring as some of the other facts that get thrown around about Texas!
