The Building of Russo Park at Louisiana

[HoustonCajun]

a number of mlb stadiums have those same openings on the exterior where you can see the underside of the stadium seating, it isnt that big of a deal. look at yankee stadium, coors field, citi field

What is behind those openings? Are there concession stands? Seems like bad weather could severely damage or dampen those exposed areas.

seems to be concourse.

No concessions, only large corridors. Rain won't have any effects.

Airflow under and through the seats is in vogue.

Looks as awful as that shed across the street. JMO. The openings are way too big.
I also feel like they missed big time on the design of the grandstand. Would have been better to have a split level with a walkway separating 2 levels.
As it is now, the 1st 6-10 rows have people CONSTANTLY walking right in your view of the action. Worst seats in the house if you ask me. JMO

That will be fixed once the club room and upper concourse are open. People entering will use the elevators to club room and concession on upper concourse during the game

Somehow, I don't see that happening.

Have those same rows not have had people walking in front for years? Specially first 5??

Doesn't mean it shouldn't be corrected. I know when I pick my seats it has to be row 11+. It's wrong. Bottom line. The end.

Yes, but the slope is less than the old grandstand. So more there is more obstructions than before. And one thing I haven't seen anyone say is that some rows have wider seats than others.
