PROPOSED: North Downtown/Baseball Stadium Development

[beerbeer]

The city made its own trouble.  They changed a bunch of specs after receiving the bid. 

In the long run it won't matter but this gives the usual group of suspects some time to chirp, gnash their teeth and hate on Hartford.

The park is still moving along bit by bit as the world turns.

The stadium looks nice....Is it where Capitol Motors was located.

The city approved the 5.5 million to take the park to finish.  This is from February 22nd.  This should be a spectacular addition to the city especially night games. By this time next year, the Hard Rock should be going up in the parking lot just left of the stadium.
