The Building of Russo Park at Louisiana

[HoustonCajun]

----Hey Fan of '71---Love your idea---what a great shot of some players handing some bricks to the workers, or even sitting on some equipment, or up in the air----Even for Benson--Sunbelt Rising up on one of those lifters!!!

How about making all the walk ways in and around the stadium with bricks, each with a former letterman, like the Walk of Honor on campus? Call it the Athletic Walk of Honor and do it for each sport. For football, do it around the Square when built with a Fleur de Lis the fountain like in The Quad on campus. Great way of connecting the main campus and athletic campus and getting former athletes back supporting athletics. Could start with each one buying their brick. Something to proudly show their family and friends. Not too late to do starting with baseball.

Great call back.

I had completely forgot about that.

Working on the corner this morning. A very important thing that has to be right.

Is that an 'adjustable' scaffold? How does that system work? Thanks.

Its a jack up platform.

Looks like they are making good progress with the brick laying. Also, I passed by today and it looks like the façade nearest 1st base (out of camera range) is pretty much closed in. It also looked like they were pouring concrete for the walkway at the top of the 1 baseline bleachers.

We are getting hammered by rain and tornados here. Hope the construction site does not get hit badly!

brick veneer really coming along now.

Looks like they are also doing some of the frame work for the very top of the outside (top floor) which on the renderings is a gray angled structure (likely metal).

Thing is going to look amazing once the brickwork is done.Tired of looking at the black

Yea it's coming along beautifully. Also, I saw a pallet of tons of boxes in the parking lot yesterday that I suspected could be seats. I drove up to and and the packaging stickers on the boxes confirmed as much. It said American Seating Company seat 507E. So naturally I looked it up... here you have it, the 507 Series. Check them out here.

According to Bab, the color we are going with is gray. Although they would look great in red, I understand the fading concern. Nonetheless, these are really nice.

That's good hustle.

You're right, I think it was gray seats with red arms/sides. Those will look great either way and are used in a lot of big league parks per the website.

Per Eric Crozier last week on the radio, they should be installing seats starting this week

Looks like the way these are made, cupholders go on the back of the seats. Pretty sure they are included
