Right now, the natural grass is being ripped up so workers can begin to install the new synthetic turf. Here's another shot from live construction camera on TheNewCWS.com: Screen Shot 2015-04-20 at 9.23.34 AM (As an aside, how much would you pay for a piece of Commonwealth sod? Crabgrass has taken over my backyard, so I'd definitely open up my wallet.) There have been a lot of rumors about possible turf designs since the synthetic material can handle paint much better than natural grass. I love the thought of blue and white checkered end zones...what do you want to see?
