A Chattanooga Lookouts official, during a walk-through of the construction site of the team’s planned $115 million ballpark, said Friday the stadium is on time and on budget as the club readies for opening the 2026 season in about one year.
Also, team President Rich Mozingo said the minor league team already has fielded a lot of interest from groups about holding private events in the meeting space accompanying the facility.
“The amount of people has blown us away,” he said at the South Broad District site where construction on the AT&T Field replacement started late last year.
