1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,520
Speaker 1: Construction crews are hard at work trying to get White

2
00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:05,720
Speaker 1: Stadium renovated, but James Meely and the Franklin Park defenders

3
00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:08,600
Speaker 1: are working just as hard to try to stop construction altogether.

4
00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:12,320
Speaker 2: Designed by Frederick Law Olmstt in the eighteen eighties specifically

5
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:16,759
Speaker 2: for student sports, and Olmstt himself wrote that professional sports

6
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:18,520
Speaker 2: have no place here in Franklin Park.

7
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:21,560
Speaker 1: Next week, the Mass Supreme Judicial Court will hear arguments

8
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:24,160
Speaker 1: about the legality of the renovations.

9
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 3: Generational White Elephant for the students they will be paying

10
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:29,720
Speaker 3: for this for the next one hundred years.

11
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,159
Speaker 1: Alan Eyer hopes the court rules in their favors so

12
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:34,879
Speaker 1: they can ultimately create a more student focused stadium.

13
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 3: When the team leaves, which eventually they will, the students

14
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:44,199
Speaker 3: are going to be left with beer garden, private suites, bars,

15
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:49,159
Speaker 3: lounges that they don't need, and a facility that's rotting

16
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 3: away that they can't afford.

17
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 1: From Franklin Park. I'm Jared Brosnan, WBZ, Boston's news radio
