Project Overview

  • The stadium seats 30,000 at full capacity but lacked accessible seating
  • Gilbane’s scope of work included building new bleacher platforms, stairs, and handrails to make more sections of the stadium accessible to fans with disabilities

“I myself sat in a wheelchair and toured the stadium to check ramps for accessibility and to review lines of sight, amongst other things. By doing this, I noticed some problem areas that were not addressed in the original plans and provided the owner with ideas for improvement.”
