The Greenville Drive are currently in the baseball offseason, but this is no ordinary offseason in downtown Greenville.
Major construction updates to Fluor Field at the West End began shortly after the conclusion of the 2016 season on Labor Day.
The first two projects that have begun are the new seats in sections 116 through 119 and the seating atop the Green Monster.
In the previous 11 seasons at Fluor Field, sections 116 through 119 featured aluminum bench seating. The bench seating is currently being removed, and the Drive will be installing chairback seats in all four sections for 2017. This project ensures that all non-berm seating at Fluor Field have chairbacks, which will make for a more uniform and comfortable seating experience for all fans.
The Green Monster seating, Fluor Field’s newest best seats in the house, will bring a little slice of Fenway Park to Greenville, and currently, the area behind the wall is under construction to prepare for the 100 seats to be placed atop the Monster. A walkway is going to be constructed as well connecting the Green Monster seats to the Fluor Field concourse.
Stay tuned throughout the offseason as the Drive keep you posted on construction updates each month!
