Renovation Update: Episode 18
Hilary Bauer is the new onfield host for the Timber Rattlers. She took over the tour guide duties for Renovation Update: Episode 18 while I was in Arizona for Spring Training.
The episode is below.
I did manage to get over there for a few pictures on Wednesday. Where to start….where to start???
Admit it. You knew this was where I would start.
Ladder match!
Now, to the part of the renovations you want to see:
Inside Suite #2
This old photos are a nice touch:
That’s Boog Powell from 1960.
A shot of Goodland Field from left field.
A shot of Goodland Field’s third base stands.
The club seats are installed! The club seats are installed!
Inside the club level.
By special request, here is the new locker room for the coaching staff.
This is the old weight room. It is now a player lounge.
There’s a sign that will grab your attention!
And now, Hilary Bauer’s debut on Renovation Update:
Renovation Update: Episode 17
I just want to state that it was snowing when we shot the video and photos on Monday. At the very moment that I write this post, it is not snowing.
A little news. This is my final Renovation Update video. I will be in Arizona from March 21 through March 26. Hilary Bauer, the new onfield host for the Timber Rattlers, will be taking over for Episode 18 as we get closer and closer to completion of this project.
Some photos:
Inside Suite #1.
A look from outside Suite #1.
A look at the club level from the end of the third base concourse. Pay no attention to the snowflakes.
My favorite part of this picture is that piece just below the peak of the roof that is shaped like the Timber Rattler logo.
In the video this week, banquet facility, concessions, restrooms, suites, home radio booth, and ticket windows….not necessarily in that order.
Renovation Update: Episode 16
Pictures first. Video second.
And since this is where I’ll be spending the majority of my time, I will start with Home Radio:
The futon is going to go against the far wall.
As I mentioned on twitter: Yes, smart alecks, the windows will open.
A good photographer is never seen in his pictures.
Here is what my brothers in sound from around the MWL have in store for them:
Your own door!
The press box has been expanded, too:
This looks like the set for one of those old: I’m a Mac. I’m a PC commercials.
Inside a suite on the club level:
I may try to call a game from up here one day this summer.
Workers!
A view of the first base stands from the club seats on the upper level.
Yes. This photo was taken on a different day. At least the Sun was out when I took this one.
See. The Sun does come out in Wisconsin!
We tried some different camera movements in this video! Enjoy!
Renovation Update: Episode 15.5
I just happened to be over at the stadium today and I saw something wonderful that needed to be shared before we shot the next video update.
The tarp has been taken down from some of the upper level.
Here’s a view from the mound.
Here’s a look from inside the banquet facility.
A view from the club seats.
A look at the outside seating for the club level.
This is the view from the club seats from directly behind home plate.
We’ll have video and more photos next week. Have a great weekend, everyone! Think Spring!
Renovation Update: Episode 15
Just like last week. Pictures first. Video second.
If you’ll indulge me, here is my new apartment…I mean, home radio booth.
Home Radio booth
This is the new bullpen area. Bullpen as in “area for office workers” not as in “place for pitchers to warm up before entering a game”.
Inside the main office.
If you look to the right when you are near the front of the stadium, you will see the new entrance to the front office.
Front office entrance.
If you look to the left from the same spot, you will see the new team store.
Team store entrance.
And here is the view from one of the upstairs camera platforms:
Panorama!
Let’s get this snow out of here!
In the meantime, here is the video:
Renovation Update: Episode 14
This week: Photos AND video!
First the pictures:
An overall view from the camera platform beyond the centerfield wall.
View from the club level near suite 3
The entrance has a roof! Hopefully this means that it will never rain while you are standing in line.
And the traditional shot of the front entrance.
Now, the video brings it all together with views of some areas that have not been seen before this episode:
Renovation Update – Episode 12.89
Change songs:
Sam Cooke Bob Dylan John Lee Hooker & Carlos Santana
Still no video camera operator. Still pictures. Lots of still pictures.
The new team store is getting its drywall.
Suite Four has been framed in…for the most part.
This is a view out the side of Suite Six.
Lots of activity in the new banquet facility.
More pictures below the break!

Construction progress in ten photographs
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
The post to ring in 2013 is about the progress on the construction at Time Warner Cable Field at Fox Cities Stadium.
I have been taking a photo almost every day since October 30. I started from the same spot and began moving forward at about 20 steps every week until I reached the chain link fence. I have been zooming in slowly through the same spot in the fence since reaching the boundary.
These are not all of the pictures. The plan is to use all of them for a time-lapse video as the project nears completion.
These will do for now. As always, click the photo for a larger image.
UPDATE: Okay. Fixed. You may NOW click for a larger image. The photo uploading changed as part of the template change. Thanks to Tim for the heads up in the comments.
Day One: October 30, 2012
I like the crane against the clouds in this one from November 5, 2012.
You can see the stairwells going up on either side of the crane against the bright, blue sky from November 13, 2012.
Notice the wall to the left and the scaffolding to the right on November 23, 2012.
The crane is moving steel as the camera has reached the fence on November 28, 2012.
The roof takes shape as the first snowfall during construction occurs on December 9, 2012.
The snow is gone, but you can see workers on the roof in this December 14, 2012 photo.
The snow is back in this one from December 21, 2012.
The activity is on the left with the workers up near the roof line two days after Christmas, 2012.
I zoomed out on January 1, 2013 to give a look at the entirety of the project. Notice that the crane is out of its spot in the center.
Regular posting will begin again on Monday. Until then, stay safe and think Spring!
