Any recent photos/updates? Their site does not have any and their Twitter feed is down...
 
If you LinkIn "Councilor Houston" with Spruce Grove - he posts on there regularly with updates from his city. He posted about a week of the new Ball Park - all the piles are in for sure....
 
They did a ton of piling over the winter. Contractor started working again about mid to end of June. There is more equipment on site now, some formwork up and more grading looks to be happening. Saw a mobile crane last week so that is probably a good sign if a large portion of the structure is planned to be steel frame.

I really have no idea why it is taking so long though. I have heard a ton of rumours but nothing worth speculating on other than birds possibly delaying construction each construction season.
 
Steel going up. This will be our 2nd ballpark…..compared to YYC’s - 0.0 baseball parks…..as their old Canons ballpark has been shuttered for decades now.

Even though construction is obviously well underway, I still find it hard to believe that a development of this scale will be in Spruce Grove. I keep having the feeling that this will become stalled for some reason, though I know that's unlikely.

At least this ball park will have a tenant, unlike Shell Place in the Mac....which has a ball park AND a football stadium....

I think if you count this as YEG's ballpark then you have to count the Okotoks Dawgs' stadium as in YYC. Okotoks is basically in Calgary now.

When I was working on this I always wondered what they were planning for as I didn't think there was any teams moving in. They Did have a CFL game and a concert but not much else. It's a beautiful facility though.

Ft Mac is full of examples of corporate greenwashing that don't make a lot of sense.
