Scope Of Work
Scharbauer Sports Complex is a multi-functional sports facility constructed for the City of Midland. This project featured a 15,000 seat steel and precast stadium for Midland's legendary high school football team. It also included a 5,000 seat AA baseball stadium dubbed First American Bank Ballpark, home to the Oakland A's Double A affiliate, the Midland RockHounds.
First American Bank Ballpark was named the Best New Park of 2002 by BaseballParks.com.
This $30 million dollar project included extensive site paving and flatwork, all constructed over a 100 acre site. Both bowl type stadiums contain press boxes, luxury suites and grass berm seating. The baseball stadium has 100% theater-style spectator seating. The ballpark complex features locker/clubhouse facilities, administrative areas, community center, and shared plaza with concessions, souvenir shops, and a restaurant on the concourse level behind home plate.
