Project Background

As reflected by the project’s diverse group of community and former elected leaders, the City County Stadium Project will meet the needs of local municipalities, institutions, and citizens for a “right-sized” stadium for providing exciting athletic competitions that add to the area’s amenities, and recognition as a world-class region. For those long-time Raleigh residents, this facility will fill the gap for a downtown stadium, left when the vintage Devereaux Meadow ballpark was demolished. The ballpark was located on Peace Street between West Street and Capital Blvd. Its rich history is well documented, and includes appearances by such baseball greats as Carl Yastrzemski and Greg Luzinski when they played Class B baseball in the 1950s and ’60s as a Boston Red Sox farm team.

Project Status

  • Conducted a series of meetings with residents, local leaders and

consultants regarding the type of stadium that should be built, and potential sites in the Southeast Raleigh area

  • Secured support from a world-class stadium design, engineering, and

architecture team, including Gensler, led by Sharon Crawford, and Dewberry’s Dennis Pitts.

  • Consulted with Wake County and City of Raleigh elected leaders and

senior managers regarding zoning, facility impacts, and financing

  • Began a search for potential sites for inclusion in a feasibility study
slide-49
SLIDE 49

POTENTIAL SIT ITES FOR FEASIBILITY STUDY

The project team has surveyed the highlighted area and has been in touch with one of the most promising sites -- the 10 acre site owned by Cargill Corporation on South Wilmington Street. While not currently available for purchase we have visited Cargill’s corporate offices in Minnesota to express interest in the site should it become available for purchase.
