The new Fifth Third Park is currently under construction, which Mayor Jerome Rice has dubbed the “biggest project in Spartanburg’s history.” How exciting is that? The stadium is set to have a seating capacity of 3,500 and is expected to be ready just in time for the season’s opening day. Surrounded by commercial retail space, over 300 apartments, and offices, this new construction is part of a grand redevelopment initiative in downtown Spartanburg that aims to enhance the local economy.
The exciting name, Hub City Spartanburgers, pays homage to Spartanburg’s rich history as a major railroad hub. Adding to the charm, the team’s logo features a hamburger wearing a conductor’s hat, complete with a retro fast food-style branding that is sure to catch the eye. The colors—lettuce green, navy, red, yellow, and white—not only look vibrant but also add a fun flair to the team’s identity.
This whole project, which comes with an estimated cost of $58.76 million, is a joint effort that combines public and private investments, including a notable $54 million contribution from the state legislature. It’s not just about baseball; this venue is set to enhance local hospitality and will attract more events and people to Spartanburg, creating an even more vibrant downtown atmosphere.
The future doesn’t stop at the baseball park! Plans for the area include a six-story hotel along with additional office space to accommodate the changes coming to downtown Spartanburg. This redevelopment aims to keep talent in the area by providing more amenities and activities for both residents and visitors.
As construction for the new stadium kicked off on November 2, 2024, and has been fast-tracked, the community can look forward to a truly engaging sporting experience. The Hub City Spartanburgers promise to create a vibrant sports environment while engaging with the local community through various events leading up to the season. So gear up, Spartanburg!
