[情報] 大都會老闆:球場加蓋屋頂要8億美金

大都會老闆在2021年時，曾經在推特上回答一位球迷 希望球場能加蓋開閉式屋頂的請求 https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Baseball/M.1618370262.A.99D.html 當時他的回答是說這樣要花3億鎂 而根據紐郵Jon Heyman最新的報導 大都會老闆後來真的有去探索這事 https://reurl.cc/9V8rjO Mets owner Steve Cohen is one who’s looked into building a retractable roof for Citi Field, no surprise since he’ll consider anything to improve Mets fan expe rience. And word is Cohen was told it would cost $800 million to add a retractable roof, which seems to have given him pause to the point where he is currently consider ing it a missed opportunity. (The cost would have been a mere fraction of that u pon construction, more on that later.) 結果他被告知的數字遠遠超過3億鎂 要在花旗球場加蓋的話，需要耗資到8億鎂 這錢都能蓋一座新球場了 Sources suggest the Wilpons did investigate a roof back in 2007 when they were c onceiving of Citi Field and found it would cost an additional $100 million to $1 25 million back then. I’m not here to bash the Wilpons. They did know their rea l estate, and Citi Field is one of the best of the newer parks in baseball (say what you want about the Wilpons, but they succeeded with their TV endeavor, SNY, and they did know their real estate, which was their main business). 而早在2007年，梅子前任老闆Wilpons也曾想過這事 當時得出的數字是1億到1.5億 A roof was added to Arthur Ashe Stadium on the other side of the 7 train for a m ere $150 million, but a tennis court is much smaller than a baseball field. The $800 million figure might even be light considering inflation. 作為比較，內文也提到美網主球場Arthur Ashe Stadium 當初加蓋屋頂是花了1.5億美金 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 220.129.181.143 (臺灣) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Baseball/M.1682950081.A.7D5.html
