Greenville City Schools will be beginning their Phase III Stadium Outdoor Athletic Facilities updates at the high school in the near future. This Phase III will include new bleachers, press box, additional ticket booth, entrance way, fencing, and pavement upgrade on the roadway directly behind the home bleachers.  There will be a developed area for the district canon display as well as a naming to the new stadium as Greenville Alumni Stadium marked on the press box.  There are an estimated 2,216 bleachers on the home side including approximately 242 bucket seats.  There are 1,219 estimated total seats on the visitor side and 244 estimated seats on the south end.  All bleachers will accommodate appropriate wheelchair seating.  Demolition is scheduled to begin in mid-to-late March with construction to follow.  The hope is to have the stadium done before the 2025 season.  The Greenville Board of Education worked with Dick Brown on the naming rights of the stadium as Greenville Alumni Stadium because of his gracious donation toward the Phase III Project of $500,000.00 over a five-year period.   This contribution was greatly appreciated by the district.

 

The district will again work with Oberer Thompson as the design builder and Motes and Associates as the criteria architect during this phase of construction.  The total budget for the project, as approved by the Greenville Board of Education, is presently $4,011,268.00.

 

Traffic flow and parking will be adjusted around the football stadium soon as the project begins.   The district looks forward to stage III of construction beginning.  Greenville City Schools appreciated the cooperation of the city, county, construction council, and design team for preparation of the preconstruction design on the upcoming stadium bleacher/press box improvement.
