Will they tear down the basketball court on parramore and/livingston/ bentley corner?

i think he means the projected 'fan zone' off terry and church..

New lights on the exterior make it look bright as day:) Well needed lighting for the area. Should be a fun two weeks;) Also happy to hear there will be a farmers market in the fan zone (according to some news report I watched the other day). Good to bring the community in that area that was abandoned for so long.

No one else posted night pics anywhere yet so thought I'd share with you guys. They are testing the lights here:)

so there is 28.5k capacity seats...how many more fans will be allowed to stand.

Banner on other side of scoreboard was going up yesterday. Looks amazing. Inside is going to be crazy! Still a lot of homeless wandering around Church/Lime/Parramore/Terry

OCSC now owns the entire block until Terry MINUS the 40 million dollar Church. Any news on what they plan to do with it? I really hope they buy out the church because it looks super awkward where it is right now.

shots taken yesterday.

many typos. Expect.... and i meant in terms of state of progress of construction. this thing moving fast.

except a lot of changes within the next few weeks. i'll keep updating. sold my camera so ill be regulated to iPhone 6 quality pics ;(

church looks so out of place as u can see in the 4th pic -___-

Is it true the stadium will have 28.5k seats and a capacity of 36k (standing room adds the extra amount of people accommodated ??? i heard some fan on the Escot bus (takes you to the game) said he heard that at a city hall meeting but i don't believe it because no news posts that fact. thanks in advance.

So they used eminent domain to take 601 W Church Street and the land next to the church towards parramore where the main entrance will be. According the the article, they didn't sell 601 W Church to the team so they should be in the clear because technically the land that was seized by eminent domain wasn't sold to the team. That church really screwed up the stadium timeline because of their greed. Stadium should have been opening this year if it was sold but in the end, hopefully the new stadium being private and larger does better for the area. at the end of the day, the stadium will get built as they already spent so much money on it.

some drama over the land being built on on the news ... hope this doesn't delay the construction more. they are getting it built regardless....

Better they do it this way than trying to rush it and switch for just the last game or so. Would be EPIC if we make the playoffs and play the first playoff game there or better yet make the finals and win in the new stadium:)

where is the rescue mission relocating. they said 'somewhere in parramore'

they want 30 million though;)

A key factor the stadium brings to moving into the location it is is some sense of safety in the area. Right now, people are afraid to walk around Parramore/Church St. due to the mass numbers of homeless than wander the streets and panhandle. A multimillion dollar stadium placed right across the area will give people a more secure feel when walking along the nice sidewalks they upgraded in the area.

good progress

thanks!

are you allowed to share the renderings?

true. i read it did blow fire out...when they score goals??

would be nice if OCS buys off the church. it is going to be so out of place there.
