New look taking shape for Spitz Stadium
LETHBRIDGE – After 43 years, the city’s primary ball park is sporting a new look.
“It’s fairly striking,” project manager Ric Johnston said outside Spitz Stadium Wednesday, Jan. 17. “The size now is very apparent, just how big it is. It’s a major improvement to the stadium, we feel it will be a major improvement to the fan experience to come in, and something that the Lethbridge Bulls can be very proud of as well.”
Johnston said construction was held up during the extreme cold, but crews should be able to make up the time. Substantial completion is expected at the end of April, with the city taking possession approximately a month later.
