ONEOK Field Construction Right On Schedule

By Jennifer Loren, The News On 6

TULSA, OK -- Tulsa's new downtown ballpark is still on schedule, despite the summer heat.

The folks at Manhattan Construction say they're right on schedule.

All of the steel for the stadium bleachers should be erected by next month.

They've started construction on the actual field and hope to lay sod by September.

"We're going to start the outside skin of the job here coming up next week and downstairs in the locker room and areas like that. Those walls are starting to come up. A lot of work's being done downstairs in the locker room areas. So we're right on schedule and we're happy with where we're at right now," said Bob Jack of Manhattan Construction.

You can check in on construction with the ONEOK Field web cam. The camera updates automatically every 15 minutes.
