The Building of Russo Park at Louisiana

[Frenchie35]

Lord have mercy. After laying all that new turf behind the ticket office, they are now digging it up. Maybe to form and pour more walkways.....That cat with the water hose and a scrub brush is in need of a pressure washer and cleaning solution.....I got two, a 3600 & 3000 psi I can rent....

Now that they have cleared out much of the construction clutter you can see how well the lighting works around the stadium.

I hope they cover the exposed openings in some way. Seeing the back of the stands through the openings gives it an unfinished look. Seems like bad weather would cause problems inside the walls unless covered.

I agree. It looks awful.

Looks awful is a bit much...but some type of coverage would look better.

A good solution: Cover with louvers. 12-14 inch slats. Open during games for ventilation and closed for bad weather....simple solution but $$$$$

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

Looks like they are installing security cameras. They just put something that looks like a camera by the second level mid stadium. Might be more coming.

Rumor has it that it will be vertical slats (louvered) that can be opened or closed as needed. If this is the case it will look like the already installed metal panels when closed but can be opened on need for the air flow mentioned. That I think would be pretty cool.

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
