The Oakland Athletics released a new set of artist renderings Tuesday showing what they hope their $1.5 billion Las Vegas stadium will look like.<\/p>\n

According to the accompanying news release, the ballpark will have a fixed roof, seat 33K people, and provide \u201can outdoor feel with views of the city\u2019s skyline.\u201d<\/p>\n

Included in the plans is the largest jumbotron in Major League Baseball. It measures 18,000 square feet, 600 more than the New York Mets\u2019 Citi Field. (Image: Negativ)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Bally\u2019s Corp. plans to close its Tropicana casino hotel on April 2, followed by a year-long demolition process before construction on the stadium is scheduled to begin in April 2025.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The stadium will occupy nine of the site\u2019s 35 acres, three of which will be shared with a plaza, with the remaining 26 hosting a new casino hotel built and operated by Bally\u2019s.<\/p>\n

“The A’s have created a remarkable design that adds to the rich fabric of must-see attractions in Las Vegas,” Bally’s Corp. Chair Soo Kim said in a statement. “This is a once-in-a-generation project, and we are thrilled for the opportunity to develop a comprehensive site plan at this iconic location.”<\/p>\n

According to their timeline, the Athletics\u2019 ballpark will be finished by 2028.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe collaboration between BIG\u2019s creativity and HNTB\u2019s technical expertise allows for a truly innovative and bold design while ensuring an unmatched fan experience,\u201d A\u2019s owner John Fisher said in the statement. \u201cWe hope to add to the dynamic atmosphere and liveliness of the Las Vegas Strip, creating a welcoming environment for all of Southern Nevada.\u201d<\/p>\n

Park & Deride<\/h2>\n

The biggest criticism of the plan is its lack of ample parking. The design provides only 2,500 parking spots. Even assuming that a third of every game\u2019s attendees will walk, Uber, or hire cabs from elsewhere on the Strip — and another third will carpool four to a vehicle — that still leaves no parking for 11,250 fans.<\/p>\n

This is likely to be a huge bone of contention. Unless the A\u2019s, currently the worst-playing team in the majors, are conceding that they never expect their new stadium to be more than two-thirds full.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
