The money spent by the new ownership on the Dodgers must exceed a billion.

It's about time.

Every Dodger fan that stuck with the team through the Murdoch/McCourt/Dan Evans/DePodesta/Davey Johnson/Jim Tracy/Grady Little years deserves this. All of it.

Elton must have been going through his subtle phase.

I took a tour of the stadium yesterday and what they're doing looks pretty cool. I'll have pics up in a bit.

"a bit" is long since passed. You're such a tease.

That's why I always upload any pics from the web to Imgur, so they'll be safely there months from now.

Not particularly. Just a bunch of different angles of the same thing. The third base line looks like the first base line.

I was mostly amazed with the fact that they were giving tours with all the construction going on. When we were in the club level there was loose cement falling from above from the vibrations of equipment. Not safe. Took some pieces home though.

Gotta make up for that huge salary spending anyway you can.

The Dodgers are holding a press conference to discuss stadium enhancements Tuesday.

Dodgers to remove last 2-4 rows on each level to provide wider concourses. Some loge seats will be removed where obstructed by overhang.

A state-of-the-art Wi-Fi network and cellular antenna system to support cell-phone and internet connectivity from mobile devices. Dodgers say 1500 new data points will enable reliable wi-fi and cell service for first time.

The new HD scoreboards will be 10mm 1080p, 22% larger, and the active viewing area of both video boards will be 66% larger. Highest resolution of any MLB park. LF board restored to original hexagon shape.

A new sound system directed to minimize echoes and sound migration outside the stadium.

All restrooms will be completely renovated, many will be added with substantially more fixtures. Measures toward being energy efficient will be instituted- new water valves, flush fixtures, waterless urinals, etc.

A new retail store will be built at the Top of the Park location behind home plate.

Playground and interactive areas for children that will include life-size bobbleheads and oversized World Series rings. Located on pavilion and reserved levels.

New Field Level entry plazas and bullpen overlooks to create standing room areas with view of game.

Any idea what the new capacity will be if they're removing 2-4 rows on each level?
