The Oakland Athletics' new Las Vegas ballpark project is progressing with vertical construction scheduled to begin by October 2025. The stadium's cost has risen to at least $2 billion, but owner John Fisher and his family have secured the necessary funding to cover the final expenses. Foundations have been completed, and construction crews are actively working on site. The team remains on track for the ballpark to open in 2028. The site features significant infrastructure, including a large red tower crane and proximity to Harry Reid Airport, highlighting the scale of the project.

I happened to drive by this today—it’s a MASSIVE, multi-building facility with its own jet-length air strip and rail siding. (And they appear to be working today—maybe catching up on all the late submarine construction.) https://t.co/fJdlw56kRi
