New Turf Coming Soon

Crews are currently prepping the field surface, with turf installation now underway. This upgrade will provide a high-quality, durable playing surface for our scholar-athletes and community events.

Track Replacement on the Horizon

A brand-new track surface is scheduled to begin installation on July 22. This upgrade will support safer, faster performances for our runners and improve the overall look and function of the field.

Restoring the Retaining Wall

The tuck-pointing work on the historic retaining wall is nearly complete, preserving an important feature of Houseman’s structure while ensuring long-term durability.

Parking Lot Progress

The new North Parking Lot is prepped and ready for paving, making access to the field smoother and more convenient for visitors and staff.
