CONSTRUCTION UPDATE
The construction of Citi Field continues to progress this summer. Concrete has been poured for the home and visiting dugouts. The video board on the main scoreboard is in place. Installation of refrigerators, ice cream machines, and other concessions equipment has begun. Landscaping of the surrounding grounds is underway, with trees being planted within the parking fenceline.
The efforts of 850 talented construction workers are advancing the development of this world-class sports and entertainment destination. The construction of Citi Field creates a significant opportunity for the competitive strength of Local, Minority and Woman- Owned Business Enterprises (LBE/MBE/WBE).
The Mets have been working with an advisory committee of community leaders chaired by Borough President Helen Marshall and co-chaired by Councilman Leroy Comrie that has ensured the involvement of minorityand women-owned businesses in Queens and the immediate area.
