Sports Stadiums are an iconic staple of American tradition. However not everything about these venues is positive. Team owners take advantage of laws and fans to meet their own goals. Citizens and city officials from various locations have taken up their grievances with the NFL in the past. And it has gotten to the point where even political parties join together to bring to light issues with the organization. NFL stadiums are not good for cities because they take advantage of tax payers, hurt citizens on an economic level and cost them billions in subsidies.

After playing two season in their first ballpark, a new $78,000 stadium was built on the same site as the original ballpark. On July 24, 1948, the new Municipal Stadium was dedicated.

In November 2004 Ace Builders (your employer) was awarded a contract for the renovation of Shea Stadium to house the New York Mets. An artist rendition of the proposed renovations is shown in Figure 1.

ACTIONS: Except track team sports are not using the stadium field. One conversation with Coach Perry centered around making it happen and 'its about time' in his words.

With the location set and the money covered, the stadium needed a name. The city wanted to dedicate the stadium in honor of veterans who have defended America’s freedom since its inception in Philadelphia on July 4, 1776. One such was War Veterans Stadium, but wasn’t quite right seeing how it was strongly opposed by anti-war activist. So, Veterans Stadium had a better ring to it and was approved in March of 1970. Now, with a name figured out next was to build the beast. In came Hugh Stubbins & Associates to lead the design and construction would conducted by McCloskey & Co. The design feature 62,000 seats within seven different seating levels. The lower stands housed

During the 1960s, while the United States was going through a civil infrastructure revolution, Texas lead the way in innovative ways; creating modern marvels that would go onto to become “Wonders of the World.” Once such building in particular lead a technical revolution, here in the city of Houston. Home to several professional sports team, and later a registered as a national land mark, the Texas created Houston Astrodome was the first in what would become multi-purposed indoor sports arenas.

The dream, the vision and the action to finalize a deal which would bring a Major League Baseball (MLB) team to the City of St. Petersburg was realized in 1998 when the Tamp Bay Devil Rays took the field for the first time at Tropicana Field. The City of St. Petersburg became victorious in succeeding where Tampa had prevailed so many times before. The triumph came when a group of ambitious businessmen collaborated to build what became the Florida Suncoast Dome in 1988 in downtown St. Petersburg. There had been a competition between Tampa and St. Petersburg to see who would build a new baseball stadium first. Tampa already had Raymond James Stadium, had built MacDill Air Force Base and the Florida Aquarium, St.Petersburg had nothing. St. Petersburg desperate to attract big business and attractions to the west side of Tampa Bay went and built the new stadium before securing a major league baseball team. The city was buried deep in the controversial move, for a mid market city to invest in a stadium without first securing a franchise could cost the city and the tax payers significantly. The gamble paid off and through years of trying to lure a franchise from other cities and being denied at every opportunity, the City of St. Petersburg was granted an expansion team by MLB.

With their offense already showing signs that 2016 could be an explosive year, the Jacksonville Jaguars could end up being the team to beat in the AFC South, if they are able to hold off other teams with their defense. The Jaguars approached the issue head on this off season by using six of their seven 2016 draft picks for the defensive unit.

The initial scope was to include football, rugby, and athletics in the same stadium. This later became very controversial and resulted in the removal of athletics from the design in 1999, because of the technical and commercial challenges of accommodating three sports within the same stadium. In 2001, the scope was further changed with the removal of a hotel from the project, the expansion of hospitality suites, and considerably changes to the north side of the stadium. These changes took Mott MacDonald an additional 8 months to redesign.

   Abstract:  The Stadium  construction boom continues, and taxpayers are being forced to pay for new high tech stadiums they don’t want.  These new stadiums create only part-time jobs.  Stadiums bring money in exclusively for professional leagues and not the communities.  The teams are turning public money into private profit.  Professional leagues are becoming extremely wealthy at the taxpayers expense.  The publicly-funded stadium obsession must be put to a stop before athletes and coaches become even greedier.  New stadiums being built hurt public schools, and send a message to children that leisure activities are more important than basic education.  Public money

America is in the midst of a sports construction boom. New sports facilities costing at least $200 million each have been completed or are under way in Baltimore, Charlotte, Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Milwaukee, Nashville, San Francisco, St. Louis, Seattle, Tampa, and Washington, D.C., and are in the planning stages in Boston, Dallas, Minneapolis, New York, and Pittsburgh. Major stadium renovations have been undertaken in Jacksonville and Oakland. Industry experts estimate that more than $7 billion will be spent on new facilities for professional sports teams before 2006.
