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.

When I grow up, I want to work in construction. Looks like a pretty stress free job.

Still trying to figure it out. How will they build this support behind the third base bleachers like on the first base side with the clubhouse in the way? What are you saying is that they are going to have a hole in the clubhouse for the support beams and after the stadium is completed the team will occupy the clubhouse with construction going through it? The construction on the first base side will be about 15 feet or so behind the bleachers. If they do this on the third base side the clubhouse should be gone.
