The push for a stadium downtown, Tulsa Stadium Trust Chairman Stan Lybarger said, was more for revitalization purposes than baseball, a strategy that has proven successful with Oklahoma City's ballpark in Bricktown.
The trust is overseeing a $60 million project that includes construction of a 6,200-seat stadium to house the city's Double-A baseball team, the Tulsa Drillers, and the acquisition of adjacent properties for mixed-use development.
