Updates from Queens Sports Complex

Posted in: Madison Park

 

  • 1. Construction Status
  • a. The Field House is progressing, with the second floor deck poured, and the steel is up for the Field House and Welcome Center.
  • 2. Security
  • a. The electrical panel has been broken into on the field. Bill Nichols, VP Facilities Planning and the Team decided that the panel box should be locked, but that there was no need for a fence around the panels.
  • 3. Landscaping
  • a. The group discussed the appearance of the grass at the entrance and around the lion sculpture. Queens will discuss adding this area to the contract for Metrolina in exchange for the area that they no longer need to maintain where the new building will stand.
  • b. It is noted that Metrolina comes out to maintain the turf three times per week.
  • 4. Additional Parking
  • a. It is noted that the available parking lots should be sufficient for most events. Also, an additional gravel lot could be added at the construction trailer area upon project completion.
  • b. Bill discussed adding an access road to connect Marion Diehl park with the Sports Complex which could also help with traffic congestion; the group will further discuss this in relation to safety issues.
