The Tigue is a special place

They may get finished with the brick work this weekend If the rain holds off until Sunday.

A few pics from today, from outside the cam range. Getting very close to finishing the exterior. And also, if you notice they have finally installed the real handrails in the first base entrance site....IDK why this wasn't done sooner, since it has been being used as the main entrance since 0303.
Also, I didn't get a chance to take a pic of it, but the interior .....the PB/suites/club level....has windows, stucco, etc., and is look really great
In summary, we will see a lot of progress next weekend.....

Would ticket sales determine that? I don't think it would be adding much seating. The only way at this point to increase seating would be to extend the bleacher down the lines, which would mean elimination either our bullpen or batting cages. I don't think our capacity will be increasing much more after this.

So, I've been thinking about that a lot. Stupid question: can the bleacher's be built above either the bullpen or batting cages?

Is there a plan for the gray spaces under the windows?? Banners or something would dress those spaces up.

They still have that one section behind the home plate area that is open and hasnt been bricked (in your last pic.) I wonder what that's about

Even with the new clubhouse being built, I doubt the old one would be be removed. Probably just repurposed

IMO there are 3 things that need to be done asap! Refurbish the boxes down first and third base lines, new outfield fence, and new club house and locker rooms

I'm thinking it's something that needs to moved into those 2 rooms that won't fit through the current doorway of those 2 rooms.

I tend to agree, but maybe helmut can weigh in on?

Looks like they are making a push to finish the brick work in the third base side this weekend.

The clubhouse need to be done as soon as possible. If you look at the stadium the only thing in my opinion that takes away for the overall presentation of this project is the old club house sitting there. Where would it be located and how much will it cost to build? If removing the bleachers and extending the stadium is not in the near future I think they should be raise to match the stadium. It want be hard to do. When they installed the third base side bleachers they notice they were 2' to low. Easy fix. They set jacks under it and raised it and placed 2' stubs under each footing. It took about 5 days to do it......

Everyone has a right to an opinion but I completely disagree with this: I drove on Reinhardt yesterday and saw up close that the bricks of the two structures blend very well. I'm sure they could make a few simple changes on the clubhouse (windows/doors, signage, etc.) that will make it blend in even more.
