The Building of Russo Park at Louisiana

[Zeebart21]

Per Red they were working earlier this morning. Two other things to keep in mind. There will always be days on construction when nothing is happening. It could be waiting on concrete to cure or it could be that the subcontractors are on other jobs. These subs aren't going to drop everything else they are doing in rush over to the ballpark. That isn't how things work unless there are some major incentives or potential penalties in play. Which brings me to my second point. We simple aren't in a position to pay incentives or overtime. Heck we barely scrapped it together to get it done at all.

Our half ssssness will never let us down. Fqqn clown show.

Looks like the electricians have moved in to finish their rough in work after the plumbers did their thing last week. I would think that after the electrical and plumbing rough in is finished then they will complete the rod busting for the foundation and place the concrete for the footings. Just a guess on my part though.

These pics showed some of the stuff down the third base line that is further along with chain walls being poured. All in all they have more done than what can be seen on the video feed. I still think they need two things to happen.... Good weather and prefab concrete. Without those I don't think we make it.

Thanks for the pics guys

I'm not seeing photos. Is it just me? If it's twitter or facebook I can understand as my corporate system blocks those.

I posted this in the past. Will the configuration of the new construction behind third and first base bleachers be the same? Will it look the same? Looking at the pictures behind the first base bleachers you can see the footing of the new section coming out behind the bleachers about 15 feet or so. Behind the third base bleachers that is not possible because of the club house being about 3 feet from the bleachers. Am I making myself understood?.......Someone said that the structure will come up inside the clubhouse.....????????......Looks like about 20 white hats and yellow shirts on site today.

Frenchie,

I'd be shocked it the stadium is not symmetrical.

Actually I think there will be two support structures going through the clubhouse. So yes it should be fairly symmetrical but probably not a complete mirror. As it stands right now the first base bleachers and third base bleachers are not at the same elevation.

Sorry, I thought I had posted it earlier. If my memory is correct, Tony said the clubhouse would be inaccessible as there would be structural supports for the deck to be installed behind the third base bleachers that are physically going THROUGH the clubhouse. Until all the work on this support and deck is complete the clubhouse will be unusable. The team will be using the Cox center until the work is finished.
