Renovations Under Way at Puryear Park

Renovations continue at Puryear Park in St. Petersburg as the park remains closed till Friday.

Here are some details on the project.

High fence repairs and new pads are being installed today.  This will clearly stop balls from getting suck up on top or on the fence area as the pad on the far left had broken months ago.  The pads will have two pieces on top overlapping about 8 inches and should be a huge improvement.

Kitz has been applied on the walls where all the white crap had be leaking out.

Ten gallons of new green paint will be applied to all 3 walls tomorrow and Friday.  A crew was using wire brushed to scrape the lime and water scale off the walls and will seal the block to try and limit it in the future before they finish the overall paint job. 

In the back court area, all the crappy tarps that are flying in the wind are being removed and there will be tightening of the perimeter netting.
