Title
Breese Stevens Capital Improvement Update
Body
The Parks Division is proposing the next phase of facility improvements at Breese Stevens Field. Changes to the historic venue include new bleacher seating under the existing canopy, spectator access above the new concession/restroom building, additional accessible spectator seating and a new accessible ramp connection to the field. Proposed field level changes include additional paving to facilitate event set-up, a new stormwater detention structure and bleacher seating at the east end of the field.
The project’s scope is consistent with the 2007 Breese Stevens Field Rehabilitation Design Report and the comprehensive 2017 Breese Stevens Field Facility Plan. The proposed changes received approval from the State Historic Preservation Office, City of Madison Landmarks Commission and Urban Design Commission.
