Southeast Wisconsin Professional Baseball Park District
October 16, 1997
The Honorable, The Legislature:
Enclosed please find the Miller Park monthly progress report for the month of September 1997 for your review and consideration. As the September 1997 progress report indicates, construction of Miller Park remains on time, within budget, and with meaningful community participation.
The District approved several significant construction contracts during the month of September. These contracts included the final construction management agreement with the HCH Joint Venture, food services equipment subcontract, structural precast concrete subcontract, and the structural steel frame subcontract.
A major construction milestone was also reached on Miller Park during the month of September. The last deep foundation pile was driven on September 26, 1997. This pile marked the conclusion of 1700 drilled piers and driven piles totaling nearly 25 miles in total length. A "bottoming out" ceremony was held on the site for the hardworking construction crew, complete with non-alcoholic Sharps beer, a tailgate party and an evening Brewers game.
Please feel free to contact me if you should have any questions or comments regarding the enclosed progress report.
Sincerely,
Michael r. duckett, p.e., r.l.s.
