Stadium Update
Portland Timbers MLS Stadium
The final Portland Beavers ballgame at PGE Park is today, construction crews have already began
final phase of PGE park's renovation for next year's MLS season. Initial work began last Winter as
a large portion of turf was removed to pour foundations for the new east side stands.
The MLS currently has four stadiums that are in the process of being built, or in the Timbers case
renovated. The projects will go a long way in furthering the effort by the MLS to put all its teams
in soccer specific stadiums. Philly's new stadium will open this June 27th when they face the
flounders in the stadium's grand opening.
