The Oscar Huber Memorial Ballpark is a historic property located in Madrid, New Mexico. The ballpark was used by the Madrid Miners baseball team when Madrid was a thriving mining community. Today Madrid is a small eclectic artist community.
Phase 1 was completed in 2009 and consisted of rebuilding the perimeter foundation and grandstand shell including a new roof. Additional funds would need to be raised to finish the project in its entirety.
Santa Fe County raised additional funds which led to Phase 2. Phase 2 consisted of constructing the bleacher seating and stairs, ADA parking area and accessible path, required electrical work and a buried rainwater collection system. The goal was to obtain a certificate of occupancy to ensure this historic structure could be used for community events.
Phase 2:
- Project Management
- Document Production / Permit Set
- Code and ADA research
- Communications with State Historic Preservation Office
- Worked with community leaders and Santa Fe County
