Storm-damaged stadium tour highlights ‘complicated’ Trop repairs 

The smell of mold and sewage now greets Tropicana Field’s rare visitors nearly six months after Hurricane Milton shredded the domed stadium’s roof.

St. Petersburg officials, who led a media tour of a ballpark on life-support Wednesday afternoon, insist that the odors are simply a byproduct of water intrusion and hundreds of toilets that have gone unflushed. However, they do not dispute that the exposed facility has suffered additional damage since October 2024.

Council approves Trop roof repairs despite concerns 

St. Petersburg will fulfill previous obligations and, hopefully, avoid litigation with the Tampa Bay Rays by repairing Tropicana Field’s roof.

The city council approved a $22.5 million roof replacement project Thursday despite concerns surrounding the final cost and baseball’s future in St. Petersburg. Administrators expect the work to conclude in December - 14 months after Hurricane Milton exposed the once-enclosed stadium to Florida weather.
