A crane is used to install the steel supports for the roof at the new stadium. The superstructure for seating is installed as the roof progresses. Workers ease a seat support into position. This panoramic view of the stadium, with Bald Eagle Mountain looming in the background, was taken on December 6, 2000. A fresh coating of snow covers the new stadium surface.
Snow is no barrier to progress on the new stadium and other facilities.
A roof is installed over much of the seating in early January as snow continues to fall. Workers place seating planks in the stands on the first base side of the new stadium. Workers assemble the roof for the new pavilion that will serve as a picnic area for both stadiums. Some areas beneath Howard J. Lamade Stadium are being converted from open space to rooms for news conferences, storage and office space . This view, from the back of Lamade Stadium, shows the new concession facility in the center, and the new stadium in the background.
