Any idea what the M-over-S logo is black and not white?

Are the "lounges" in the LF laid out exactly like the ones in RF?

That's going to be a beautiful stadium. Don't know for a fact, but my guesses to your questions: White M-S logo would get dirty pretty quickly and look bad. Pretty sure LFL and RF are laid out differently.

Did we leave the old dugouts and build the new stadium around them? It it looked like the logos on the dugouts was from the old stadium.

What is going to be under the concourse where our bullpen is? I looked on the plans but couldn't find out what will be housed in there.

There are going to be some odd bounces down the right field line and in foul territory off the first base side....those seats that stick out on the first base side will be a blast though... might need a quick glove, head on a swivel or a net....

Pretty sure the large 30' black poles in both berms will hold the ends of a single, full net that will cover all the grandstands (upper and lower).

There are carpet-like pieces in the foul areas & warning track.
Does appear they're creating a turf warning track. Can anyone confirm this?

It's also good to see that the dugouts aren't green any more. Now maroon on the inside.

I do know that there will be a turf foul area, don't know about the warning track.

yep, looks like brown turf for the warning track. Probably my only complaint about this masterpiece.

I'm not exactly sure, but I think each outfield spot is per each owner's/lessee's custom choice. I think MSU said something like "choose 1 of 8 designs, with benches or individual seats" or something like that. So most spots will be different than the spot next to it. I think the varying seating arrangements will help conserve a little of the feel of the old lounge. I wonder if anyone will choose no seats and have standing room only like some of the old LFL trailers.

Catacombs containing the remains of beloved Bulldog ballplayers. I thought it was pretty obvious.

i sure hope there is not a net between my eyes and the field. I cannot stand looking through a screen.

Was told storage/work rooms for grounds crew and others, along with one room for mechanical.

Stumbled upon these twitters, it shows the entire outfield:
