The field at DAP is terrible, comparable to a poor local HS field. WMS is currently being used by the Stan Musial league, MSBL, and pony leagues, and NCA&T. These organizations need to be involved in changes, and in ensuring that the quality of the playing field remains high.jimcasertahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07599825260220591595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9159479.post-1106840813080626832005-01-27T10:46:00.000-05:002005-01-27T10:46:00.000-05:00Adaptive reuse is both necessary and positive.

Interior details are valuable and too often lost. And when they only preserve the facade and build entirely new buildings behind it, this strikes me as a bit amusement park-ish. I think this should only be done with a truly compelling facade and a building that there is positively no use for.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00476420107840920990noreply@blogger.com
