Surely they don't plan to build this hang glider with poured footings in the flight path of 3/4 of the East Coast's hurricanes?
Yes, but in a double utley you can put your utley on top they other guy's utley, and you're the winner. (Swish)

My first thought upon seeing the renderings is that placing the majority of parking spaces in parking structures is a recipe for disaster.

That's one parking garage for every 100 fans in attendance, so I don't think it'll be a big deal
you sure do seem to have a lot of time on your hands to be on this forum? Do you have a job? Are you a shut-in?

Attendance will jump just because of the much more convenient location. Plus, I think you'll see more people willing to go to games if they close the top and crank the A/C in the place.

You think you add a lot of value to threads? I can't remember a single post you've ever made or interesting insight comment or bit of humor? I have no impression of you other than as a saracstic guy who feels the need to make it personal with me -- just white noize with a number for a name....

it looks like a toilet seat lid when it's closed.

can not believe they would do parking garages like that - those cost about $30k per space to build...maybe more since it's in such a severe hurricane zone.

What's with the little kidney bean shape beyond the wall in left center? A swimming pool maybe?
This is a simple game. You throw the ball, you hit the ball, you catch the ball.

Some details from a blog entry, derived from the agreement documents...


- The ballpark capacity is about 37,000 and takes up 927,703 square feet.

- Garages and parking lots will hold at least 5,713 cars with parking likely costing more than $10 per spot per game.

- Construction formally begins on July 1, 2009 with first concrete pouring August 20, 2009. The ballpark will be completed on March 29, 2012.

- The Marlins are locked for 35 years subject to terms of a Non-Relocation Agreement.

- The City of Miami may develop an MLS soccer stadium on site (subject to many restrictions).

- There are different seating sections: Batter’s Box Seats (behind home plate), Dugout Club Seats, Owner’s Box (12 seats within the Batter’s Box Seats), Home Plate Reserved (behind Batter’s Box Seats), Field Box Seats (behind dugouts), Club Level Seats, View Level Box Seats, and Standing Room Positions.

- Suites will come in various sizes and features: Luxury Suites, Founder Suites, Super Suite, Party Suites, Owners Suite, Home GM Box, Bleachers will be located in the Fiesta Deck in the outfield.

- A 150 person Party Room will be located behind the outfield wall and will featured catered area with 2 tiers of seats.

- The Field Box Seats and Dugout Club and both will have a pregame buffet, in-game food service and their own bar.

- The main concourse near left field will feature a "Taste of Miami Food Court".

- The scoreboard will be HD (of course) and there will be several other ribbon boards througout the ballpark.

- Interactive Kids' Zone will be located in the outfield by Fiesta Seats.

- The swimming pool and "beach" will be located in the outfield.

- Main retail store will be accessible from the outside on non-game days.

- Player’s family can relax at a private lounge near the clubhouse.

- A special room will be allocated, if and when needed, for female umpires.

- The bullpens will have artificial turf.

- A large-scale animatronic marlin in a tank which will "jump" when the Marlins hit a home run.

- Dimensions are somewhat similar to Dolphin Stadium: 335 down the right field line, 392 in the gap, 416 leading to 420 in a Bermuda Triangle like layout in center, 384 in the left-field gap and 340 down the left-field line. Speaking of the Bermuda Triangle, the outfield walls curve rather than bend and the Triangle looks more like a sea shell then a triangle. May also include a new version of the Teal Monster.
