Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG), joined by Kansas City–based infrastructure firm HNTB, have been announced as the winners of a competition seeking a 33,000-capacity Major League Baseball stadium in Paradise, Nevada, that will serve as the future home of the Oakland Athletics once the franchise relocates as planned—a move that received a final stamp of approval from the MLB last November—to Sin City. Notably, the facility will be the first ballpark that the team, which was founded in 1901 as the Philadelphia Athletics, can truly call its own since 1909 when Philly’s old Shibe Park first opened for play.
