The indoor practice facility doesn't appear to be coming along too far according to the time-lapse photography on their website.

It is the second week of May and those picutres do not show a lot of development there. If it's planned to be ready in Jul, they have to get on the ball and get moving on it, IMO.
 
It won't be done until next season...maybe the end of this one.
 
I asked some of the workers last week and they said they are shooting for the middle to the end of this season, but it may not be until next season becuase of the large hurricane season coming.
 
Maybe the guy I talked to didnt know what he was talking about...i'm hoping it is done for this season.

Someone better tell Nick then because their site says,

"The 96,600 square-foot structure is scheduled to be completed in July, coinciding with the opening of Dolphins training camp."

Development looks to be coming along ok to me. Keep in mind the actual bubble itself will be one of the last parts of the process, and shouldnt take long to do. Getting the indoor training surface done to the standard required is the tricky part and its clearly where they're at right now.

“We’re happy to announce that we have begun construction on a new indoor practice facility here at our Nova Southeastern University Training Facility. As you probably saw as you drove in today, there are bulldozers on the site moving dirt around. Our contractor, Stiles Corporation, wasted no time in getting to the task and we’re focused on getting the indoor facility built and up and running by the start of training camp this year.

Of course though if you actually spoke to the builders and they said probably next year? Well in builders speak that means roughly 2012. Worrying!
