  • Here the Stadium Is Not Complete in Time, We See Two Potential Alternatives
    In 2017, after years of lobbying and planning, the Pawtucket Red Sox announced their move to Worcester, Massachusetts. The WooSox and Worcester announced that Polar Park would be fully emerged into Worcester’s Canal District. From the beginning, this plan was centered on building more than a stadium through a massive redevelopment of the Canal District along with a restructuring of Kelley Square. This undertaking would be funded by the team through lease payments, and the city/state in the development stages. Overall, the stadium is projected to cost approximately $99 million with additional fees around $37.5 million for property acquisition and operating expenses (Kane, 2020). The team is expected to pay $43.4 million while the city is responsible for $56.1 million (Kotsopoulous, 2020). In addition, the Canal District is expected to undergo a massive redevelopment. The plan created by Gilbane-Hunt and AECOM is projected to cost $101 million (Welker, n.d.). This proposal includes a 120,000 square-foot office building in left field with retail and restaurant space; two hotels; and further retail, office, and residential areas throughout the Canal District. This redevelopment is expected to help the stadium pay for itself as Worcester City Manager, Ed Augustus, has stated, “the fundamental principle [is] that no existing city tax revenue will be used to fund the ballpark construction.” Instead, payments will come from an incremental tax increase from the redeveloped district and increases in facility fees from the team through ticket sales and parking, among others (Kotsopoulous, 2020). However, the COVID-19 pandemic may have thrown a wrench into these plans.
