Breaking Ground on History: Fite Leads Construction of UNA’s First University-Owned Stadium

Fite Building Company is proud to serve as the general contractor for Bank Independent Stadium, a landmark project for the University of North Alabama. As UNA’s first-ever university-owned stadium, this 59,708-square-foot facility represents a historic milestone for the campus and its growing athletic program.

Delivered through a design-bid-build approach, the stadium will feature:

A modern main concourse
State-of-the-art amenities for athletes and fans alike
An underground tunnel connecting to the existing field house
A complete renovation of the baseball hitting facility

In partnership with the University of North Alabama, Davis Architects, and HPM, Fite is honored to help bring this transformative vision to life. More than just a stadium, this project reflects UNA’s long-term commitment to student-athletes, school spirit, and campus growth.

Once complete, Bank Independent Stadium will not only elevate the game-day experience—it will stand as a symbol of pride and progress for the UNA community for generations to come.

What Our Clients Say

"Fite put together a great team of construction and design to deliver a first class Air Cargo building facility at the Huntsville International Airport. The coordination with the project manager to handle design and construction related issues found to be very helpful in managing our workload. The attention to detail from their subcontractors was a cut above what we’ve been accustomed to in the past.

Fite made a somewhat apprehensive client happy with the Design/Build scenario and we’ve continued this model for several projects due to the success of the Air Cargo Facility."
