"We are very close..." Howard Terminal project update (May 2022)

This is a clip from the recent "Batter Up at Howard Terminal" webinar, hosted by the Bay Area Council.
"The Bay Area Council has been at the intersection of business and civic leadership, shaping the future of the Bay Area since 1945. Today, our vision is to make the Bay Area the best place to live and work. More than 330 of the largest employers in the region are members of the Bay Area Council and are committed to working with public and community leaders to keep the Bay Area the most innovative, globally competitive, inclusive, and sustainable region in the world."
"With a critical decision looming for the Oakland A’s on plans to build a modern new ballpark and surrounding development at an underutilized cargo terminal on the Oakland waterfront, Bay Area Council CEO Jim Wunderman led a discussion with Mayor Libby Schaaf, A’s President Dave Kaval, Port of Oakland COO Kristi McKenney and Alameda Labor Council Executive Secretary-Treasurer Liz Ortega on the status of the project and what’s next."

Keep up the updates love these longer videos

[@donborracho3019]

I grew up going to A's games. I still go. I love my old stadium. However, i live blocks from the Howard terminal and welcome the idea of walking to games.

Dodger fan here.

[@ciscoe007]

Need the rooftop sky lounges/bar and grilles on top or in the middle portion of the crane 🏗 Now THAT would be awesome and add another dimension to this great project.

[@SuperMaryjaneman]

Being an A’s fan has always required patience. Not going to get my hopes up, but I have a hope this might actually come to fruition. Thanks for all the updates Brodie

[@brianwong7901]

I like the update. I’ve been to the current stadium, before they renovated it. I have good memories going there. However to the true A’s fans, this new stadium will be a great fan experience

[@CoachMikejvGahr]

You have done a great job with the information on this subject, I am not a Bay Area resident but I am still very interested in the A's staying in Oakland. Keep pushing out the information

[@danelkington3808]

A brand new stadium is great for the A's and keep them in town. Looking forward to seeing this project happen! I love my A's......

[@carlostenorio9892]

Always wish I could have watched a ballgame at the coliseum with my grandpa and if this gets done I hope I can watch a game at Howard with my grandson one day.

[@brant9871]

The A’s are moving to Las Vegas there down to 2 final sites for a Ballpark

[@bleed83blue]

I'm a Dodgers die hard and I want this for you guys! lol pulling for you guys!

[@ciscoe007]

Fantastic vision and a much need project that will bring not just added revenue streams the city needs but a positive impact to the Oakland/East Bay community for decades.

HT Is Gonna Kick Ass!!! 😁❤😁

[@therealraiderjuice7118]

Let's get this done! Let's make them Giants fans jealous

[@willp.8120]

Sounds like a plan like the Braves with the "Battery" by Truist Park.

[@fernandoacosta7423]

Thank You Brodie !

[@eddierothvisual1057]

Hi Brodie, if you're reading this - a question. I'm very happy to hear that this ballpark is coming together. And it sounds like the front office will plan on finally fielding a competitive team once the new park is built? HOWEVER, how can we be sure of this? You look at the Pittsburgh Pirates at PNC Park, which is arguably the most beautiful ballpark in the league, and their owner is still very frugal with team finances - like the A's owner - and over the years, you NEVER see them go after big free agents or retain top talent - with the exception of Ke'Bryan Hayes. Can us A's fans expect a change from the owner and see him support a storied ballclub? Maybe a topic in an upcoming video? Thank you. - Eddie

[@markniskanen8354]

Thanks for posting this, Brodie. Stadium looks awesome. Go A's.

[@diegomayfield4751]

For A's fans , this is the greatest thing that could

[@eastbayhwd1987]

Beyond excited. Lets go Oakland!!!
