Owner John Fisher, MLB commissioner Rob Manfred and Nevada officials broke ground on the $1.75 billion, 33,000-capacity ballpark on the former Tropicana site at the south end of the Strip, which the A's plan to open for the 2028 season.

Nevada's governor and NDOT cut the ribbon on the $382 million rebuild of the Interstate 15 and Tropicana Avenue interchange, the south-Strip gateway to Allegiant Stadium and T-Mobile Arena, after three and a half years of 'Dropicana' closures.

A 200-ton steel truss was attached to a buttress on the east side of the ballpark on 1 June, the first piece of the arching roof that will top out about 290 feet over the field, roughly the height of the MGM Grand across Tropicana Avenue.
