Portland Timbers Stadium Renovation Details

  • The field will be shifted to be closer to the fans. Imagine the whole pitch moving closer to the dugouts and where home plate is now. The fans in the stands will be right on top of the action.
  • The grassy knoll in the baseball out field will be replaced with modern seating that features a roof to protect fans and premium seats with a restaurant, for people who like that kind of stuff.
  • The stadium will remain open to 18th street and the views of the city from within the stadium will be preserved.
  • A new team store will be constructed and open year around.
  • A newer and bigger video board will be hung in the south end along the MAC building.
  • Seating capacity will total 20,000 with the ability to open up 4,000 more seats.
  • Last but not least, you are looking at what will be the most unique and possibly the coolest soccer venue in the US.
