  • Community Information Session May 22, 2017
    Community Information Session May 22, 2017 . Adam Aaronson │ GW │ Director, Campus Development Management . Garrett Klassy │ GW │ Senior Associate Athletic Director . Richard Salopek │ Bowie Gridley Architects │ Principal Background In September 2011, Arlington County and The George Washington University entered into a 20-year agreement under which GW designed and constructed new baseball facilities at Barcroft Park Field #6. Upgrades included: . Installation of synthetic turf field . Scoreboard . Upgraded dugouts . Press box . Bullpens . Concession area . Outdoor Batting Cages . Spectator seating . Site lighting . Public Restrooms 1 Background . The agreement for Barcroft #6 improvements required that GW spend no less than $3,000,000 on field upgrades and improvements to help create more of a “ballpark” atmosphere. GW’s investment in the initial improvements exceeded $5,000,000 . Since the completion of the improvements, GW’s NCAA Division I Men’s Baseball team and several Arlington County diamond field user groups have utilized and benefitted from the upgrades made at Barcroft Park Field #6. 2 Background . Barcroft Park Field #6 is located on South Four Mile Run Drive at the western end of Barcroft Park. Field #6 is one of four 90-ft baseball diamonds in Arlington County, and is currently the only synthetic diamond field in the county. The diamond field located at Gunston is currently in the design phase, and will be synthetic turf in the near future. 3 Background Significant Events . 2015 Atlantic 10 Baseball Tournament . All-Star Babe Ruth State Tournament . 2015 . 2017 4 Planning for the Future . In addition to the initial facility improvements made by GW, the existing agreement outlined that “the design should allow for the addition of team locker rooms and a club house in the future.” .
