Oakland A’s Agree To Buy Bally’s Las Vegas Tropicana Site: Will Ben Garcia’s Design Be Used?

The Nevada Independent is reporting that the Oakland A’s have purchased the Tropicana site. Here’s what they wrote:

The Oakland A’s and Bally’s Corp. have an agreement in place for the team to build a $1.5 billion stadium on a portion of the Tropicana Las Vegas site, a move expected to reduce the amount of public financing sought for the project to $395 million. Sources with knowledge of the negotiations told The Nevada Independent on Tuesday that under the scope of the deal, Bally’s plans to demolish the Tropicana and allow the A’s to construct a 35,000-seat retractable roof stadium on 9 acres of the 34-acre site on Tropicana Avenue near the southern end of the Las Vegas Strip. The A’s were initially looking to secure legislative support for a $500 million public funding package involving tax credits and the creation of a special taxation district to help fund stadium construction. The team announced that it had reached a “binding agreement” with Red Rock Resorts in mid-April to acquire land to house the stadium, but recently moved to revisit other potential stadium sites.

That’s the same site that was the focus of Ben Garcia’s path-breaking design. I had Ben on Zennie62 Live to talk about his viral creation, and here’s the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZ5DkoHMBdU

But what you do not know is that I introduced Ben to Oakland A’s President Dave Kaval via text message, and just days after our interview, and advocated for the A’s to hire Ben for the Las Vegas Project. The rest of the news is between Ben and Dave.

But Ben’s design is one step closer to reality. See: https://ift.tt/Jqo9di4

In this livestream, we will look at Ben’s design as he created it for the Tropicana site. See you at 9:35 PM EST here at Zennie62 Live

Stay tuned.

The overall objective here, on top of our is smartphone-enabled, real-time, on the scene reporting of news, interviews, observations, and happenings anywhere in the World and within seconds and not hours – is the use of the existing YouTube social graph on any subject in the World. Now, news is reported with a smartphone and also by promoting current content on YouTube: no heavy and expensive cameras or even a laptop are necessary, or having a camera crew to shoot what is already on YouTube. The secondary objective is faster, and very inexpensive media content news production and distribution. We have found there is a disconnect between post length and time to product and revenue generated. With this, the problem is far less, though by no means solved. Zennie62Media is constantly working to improve the system network coding and seeks interested content and media technology partners.
