Baseball Stadium Renovations at US Cellular Field
A team of design professionals and structural engineers were retained to renovate US Cellular Field in Chicago, Illinois. US Cellular Field is a major league baseball stadium and home of the Chicago White Sox. The structure is a three concourse (or tiered) structure that has seats for approximately 45,000 people including 84 luxury suites located on the middle club level. The stadium was originally built in 1991 for $120 million dollars. The purpose of the renovation was to bring a friendly retro style feeling to the ballpark using structurally exposed elements. The renovation was completed in 2005 at a cost of approximately $70 million dollars. The major points of the renovation included the following: 1 Relocation of both bullpens. 2 Addition of 600 club level seats. 3 Renovation of the batters eye section. 4 Integrate new brick and signage along the concourse areas. 5 Removal of a portion of the upper deck seating area, and addition of a canopy.
