Construction is continuing on Love's Field. Pictures from July 2nd.
Pic A - This is from the usual view from the east sid eof Jenkins. As you can see, the roof surface has been added to the roof structure behind home plate. I still believe that there will be one more section added down both lines. The support building/facilities of bathrooms, concession stands and locker rooms have added walls and other features. The batting/practice facility has had side walls added as well as the roof.
Pic B - I took this picture so you could see the terracing work that has been done in the outfield. If you look just to the right of the Love's Sign and the wall being built, you can see the outfield seating area and the terraces. i think this is the 'seating area' that is on either side of the batter's eye area in CF or it could be the batter's eye area of grass.
Pic C - This pic is showing the Sooner Bullpen area down the LF line. I di dnot notice this before, but you can see the walkway ramp to the left of the bullpen that is how fans will get to the LF seats. It is a ramp with an open usage area under that will lead to the batting/practice facility. You can also see the work that has been added to the walls and roof of the batting/practice facility. You can also see how high the back of the outfield seating is going to be. You can also see a stem wall in the middle of the outfield area. I wonder if that is the beginning of the CF scoreboard foundation.
Pic D - This pic is from the west side of the batting/practice facility. I took the picture from the parking lot of the gymnastics facility. Again you can see how high the back of the outfield seating will be and the work continuing on the batting/practicing facility as well as the open areas below ramps and the under what you see for the b/p facility.
Boomer Sooner!

OUB56A, you should contact Sooner Sports and some of the other Sooner publications. You might make some $$$ (well maybe just $) of your pictures and narratives.
Thanks for taking the time to update us on the progress.
