Construction News: Following are some
current Great American Ball Park construction highlights:
|
 | The Spirit of Baseball bas-relief is starting to come together along
the west wall of the Reds Administration Building. Like a jigsaw puzzle,
the limestone relief is put together piece-by-piece. There are a total of
33 pieces to be installed, forming one massive 50-foot relief.
|
 | Workers are now testing the electronic ribbon boards and the main and
out-of-town scoreboards.
|
 | The out-of-town scoreboards are located on the leftfield wall. They
will continuously update fans in attendance with up-to-the minute scores
from all of the Major League Baseball games going on at that time.
|
 | The ribbon boards are located along the first and third baselines,
below the upper deck. These boards will feature sponsor and promotion
information, as well as messages from the fans.
|
 | The Cincinnati Reds Riverfront Club is starting to take shape. Workers
are installing ceiling and floor tiles.

Fun Fact – The Riverfront Club is located on the edge
of right field next to Club 4192. It will offer a stylish, upscale
atmosphere where members and their guests can watch the ballgame and
enjoy world-class cuisine prepared by an award-winning chef. The
facility will accommodate approximately 350 people and will feature an
elegant, glass-enclosed dining area, as well as a separate lounge and
bar for casual entertainment.
Membership to the Riverfront Club for the 2003 season is limited and
will be taken on a first-come, first-serve basis. First priority will be
given to premium and season ticket holders. The Riverfront Club will
open only on game days. For more information about the Riverfront Club,
