Construction began in the spring of 2004 on a new artificial turf to replace the existing grass field.[4] The new field provided the opportunity for other sports and events to use the facility as well. Two renovated concession stands and an information kiosk were also completed. Tiger Stadium is being updated by the restore the roar project. This project includes new turf, fixed lighting, new fencing, and the addition of field houses for home and away teams.[5]
