Phoenix Raceway’s enhancements and construction project, officially dubbed the Phoenix Raceway Project Powered by DC Solar, continued this week with the first concrete pour for the newly constructed Allison Grandstand extension.
The fan experience is a key component to the project, and the grandstand extension will see some 23,000 cubic yards of concrete poured ahead of all the new elements housed within. This will feature multiple concourse levels featuring upgraded concessions, new souvenir shops, new restrooms and more.
The latest photos are below:

Here are some other photos from the last month as Phoenix Raceway has provided updates throughout the process. The construction began earlier this year with Helio Castroneves’ groundbreaking in the spring.
