Ok. Which one of you nerds is repaying me for my trip to Purchase to film the first practice facility. And my trip to Orangeburg. Can’t carry the water forever around here guys…

Someone get down there tomorrow and check out the plot of land

Where did this render come from? Was it in the article below the paywall line?

 

[Fantazma]

Is the STADIUM 780 or the project?

How ready is the land?

Not ready yet it seems

I'm very happy right now, but also a bit reflective. I've probably spent far more time reading this thread over the years than I'll ever spend inside this eventual stadium.

It's been a great journey folks. Hopefully it's smooth sailing from here.

Time for a new poll above lol.

Just the STADIUM. Lots of work still to do on the land but it'll get there. Willets Phase 1 completed by 2026, stadium completed by 2027.

to compare to other teams the when the highlanders became the Yankees it was ten years before they move to old yankee stadium, it took 3 years for the mets to get their place and the other teams teams got their first homes around the time they were born. (expect for the jets)

It kinda looks like Nashville's park. I hope it gets a retractable roof.

So close to page 1069. Missed opportunity IMO.

Woulda been nice.
ETA: how were there like a dozen posts in before me and nobody said this!

Just for reference, this is the Google Maps image of the plot of land "across the street just opposite the right field foul pole".

It's almost entirely razed right now, with basically just old concrete foundations left.

Seth Make it happen buddy! Bonus points if you can drop that rendering in there.

Popping up from my long absence just to say that I told ya it was gonna be Willets Point.

Was at dinner with the wife for my bday. She took a picture of me crying when I red the article.

Don't worry - just think about how epic all the construction updates are going to be. Watching the Carrier Dome in Syracuse be transformed was a blast -- I hope we get the same here!
