That idea requires serious consideration. Depending on the scale of the work you might even be able to get most of it done during the off season and not even lose an entire season (on each side) although I would suspect that might be pushing it. IF they incorporate end zone seating into whatever design is considered you would not even effectively lose half the capacity as some of that would be gained back by the new end zone seats which could be the first portion of the rebuild, and in place before the real work begins.
