“’We preserved quite a bit of the stadium,’ said James Cordell, principal at Heartland, noting his belief that the project is the first conversion of a stadium to housing. ‘It’s just a very unusual thing to do’.”

The $22 million Stadium Lofts project, which is due to open to residents this August, has found inventive ways to incorporate the stadium’s unique shape in its varied apartment layouts. “The design [also] preserves the stadium’s quirky features and iconic elements, including its old scoreboard, press box, and lighting towers. Ticket booths and offices are being converted into common areas. The baseball diamond, remade in earth-tone concrete and grass, remains as a green space for residents.”
