The honor reflects his role in transforming Lambeau Field, a legacy of redevelopment and sustained success.
Overview

- Harlan’s name will appear in a separate recognition area in the northeast corner alongside late general manager Ted Thompson, distinct from the facade’s Hall of Famers and retired numbers displays.
