The City of Fort Wayne wanted to create a destination for the people of Fort Wayne and the surrounding areas that would encourage participation in and around the existing downtown facilities and parks. Parkview Field was designed as a multi-purpose venue housing a baseball field, multiple event and meeting spaces, a parking garage, condominiums, a hotel, restaurants and retail spaces.
The City of Fort Wayne partnered with a private developer from Atlanta, Georgia to bring the project to fruition. The project team requested bids from local builders, contractors and product suppliers.
Weigand Construction served as the Construction manager overseeing the logistics and the budgeted costs for the project. Parkview Field includes approximately 6,500 fixed seats, specialty seating, 16 suites, a suite-level lounge, party deck, rentable event space, kid’s zone and amphitheatre. The ballfield includes a state of the art drainage system, dugouts, bullpen areas, groundskeeping and maintenance areas, picnic area and multiple concourse level food and beverage options, the TinCaps administrative offices, press facilities, box office and a 5,000 square foot kitchen facility. Catering and Events at Parkview Field boasts an extensively experienced Executive Chef, Event Manager and Food and Beverage Directors and managing over 200 qualified hospitality team members
