For more information, please contact megan.obrien@marquette.edu. ESSAY SPORTS FACILITIES & URBAN REDEVELOPMENT DAVID E. CARDWELL* The 1990s was a decade in which new sports facilities of every type and description were built throughout the United States and Canada. Not since the 1960s when baseball began its major expansion has there been such a boom in new facilities. The decade began with the construc- tion of New Comiskey Park in Chicago in 1991. The following construc- tion boom has continued unabated into the present. What explains this explosion in new design, concepts and construc- tion? It is more than the mere aging of structures (i.e., Wrigley Field is still going strong even though it dates back to 1916). Changes in the economics of the game explain much of the need for new facilities that generate more revenue that can then be retained by the team to pay ever-increasing player salaries. The specifics of the economics of modern professional sports are be- yond the scope of this article. Suffice it to say that the fundamental changes in all major professional sports in the United States resulting from player free agency, increased broadcast revenue, merchandise and other non-game revenue, and the conversion from family to corporate ownership of teams has made the financial bottom line just as important as the team's place in the standings.

  • An Analysis of the American Outdoor Sport Facility: Developing an Ideal Type on the Evolution of Professional Baseball and Football Structures
    AN ANALYSIS OF THE AMERICAN OUTDOOR SPORT FACILITY: DEVELOPING AN IDEAL TYPE ON THE EVOLUTION OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL AND FOOTBALL STRUCTURES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Chad S. Seifried, B.S., M.Ed. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Donna Pastore, Advisor Professor Melvin Adelman _________________________________ Professor Janet Fink Advisor College of Education Copyright by Chad Seifried 2005 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to analyze the physical layout of the American baseball and football professional sport facility from 1850 to present and design an ideal-type appropriate for its evolution. Specifically, this study attempts to establish a logical expansion and adaptation of Bale’s Four-Stage Ideal-type on the Evolution of the Modern English Soccer Stadium appropriate for the history of professional baseball and football and that predicts future changes in American sport facilities. In essence, it is the author’s intention to provide a more coherent and comprehensive account of the evolving professional baseball and football sport facility and where it appears to be headed. This investigation concludes eight stages exist concerning the evolution of the professional baseball and football sport facility. Stages one through four primarily appeared before the beginning of the 20th century and existed as temporary structures which were small and cheaply built. Stages five and six materialize as the first permanent professional baseball and football facilities. Stage seven surfaces as a multi-purpose facility which attempted to accommodate both professional football and baseball equally.

DREAMS AND PLANS: A CASE STUDY OF THE FOOTBALL FACILITIES OF THE UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA A Dissertation Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Educational Leadership by Misty B. Soles August 2018 Accepted by: Robert C. Knoeppel, Committee Chair D. Matthew Boyer Michael Godfrey Mindy Spearman ABSTRACT Intercollegiate athletics are an integral part of colleges and universities in the United States and have been for decades. Large athletic facilities expenditures began in the interwar period, the period between the two World Wars, with widespread construction of on-campus stadiums. Currently, athletic facilities expenditures are experiencing a second nationwide spending spree that began around the turn of the century. This study considers the types of athletic facilities, motivations for those facilities, and financial models used to pay for those facilities at the University of Georgia. The study concentrates on facilities constructed solely or primarily for football during two chronological periods: the interwar period and the 2000-2017 period.

We continue to be amazed at the level of technical and creative skill displayed in the competition as many of these students will go on to shape the future of architecture. Oliver Stepe President, YKK AP America Inc. www.ykkap.com HSDC ‘18 New for 2018: Advanced Competition Group Entries Every year, the HSDC Committee works to make the competition exciting and fun for everyone. In past years we have introduced the beginner competition to open to the competition to students of all skill levels. This year, we are expanding the competition again to allow individual and group entries to the advanced competition. The beginner competition will remain an individual competition. We realize that sometimes our advanced competition can be a challenge, especially when working alone. We also realize that designing buildings is never a solitary task, and it takes many minds and many more hands to bring a project to fruition. Group entries will be judged separately from individual entries, with prizes to be split evenly among team members. For more information, see the advanced competition section of this program. The beginner competition remains an individual competition. It will be a chance for students to learn about plans, sections, and elevations, as well as explore architecture by solving programmatic problems with creativity and ingenuity.
