Do share. The raid gutter/flumes on the outside will be demolished.They will redo all the entrances, removing the white cloth roofs, and replacing them with roofs similar to the athletics building and the other new projects. The southwest will become the grand entrance, with the ticket office, and they hope to put in a team store that can be open during the week. The building will be painted, but no colors or patterns have been selected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The landscaping will also be consistent with those complexes as they are using the same company for all 4 projects. All the nasty bahia grass by the loading ramp will be bermuda grass to match the baseball stadium exterior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I remember that one but it was still kind of a futuristic wish type thing ... The working renderings now will be the real deal. Some additional info is now coming back to me.... the front corner (ent 3) will actually be kind of close to what you see... the current sloping cement will be replaced by steps like shown... also, the ticket office is being removed and the front will be all glass doors with a new roof resembling the one in the picture. He said that Entrance 2 will stay close to what it is now(the entrance directly across from AD) so they could move the ramp for the truck entrance as shown below... would free up the entire side to be landscaped which would mesh with the base ball stadium. Also, while not in the exact location, a parking garage is still planned just next to the new chiller plant. What ever ends up happening it's going to look VERY different than what is currently there. Can't get over the tunnel from the Muma Center that goes to mid court... pretty bad ass.
