Proposed Youth Complex in Lakewood,
New Jersey

Developers in Lakewood, New Jersey hired RMD to perform a feasibility study for a youth sports complex component to a planned, “lifestyle center,” surrounding First Energy Park.  The “Lifestyle Center,” would include a movie theater, hotel, retail shops, homes, apartments and a youth baseball complex.  RMD also provided design consultation, programming plans, and management plans for a financially profitable complex.

Proposed Youth Sports Complex in
Smithfield, VA

RMD was acquired by the Isle of Wight Athletic Association to develop a premier youth sports complex as part of an activity center located in Isle of Wight County, VA.  The proposed location is in an area known as William Benns Grant Development.  The complex would be owned and operated by the IWAA, a public section 501c(3) charitable association that provides a sports experience to local Isle of Wight area children ranging for 5-16 years old.  The study evaluated the economic feasibility of an indoor and outdoor complex not only for local youth but also as a national tournament facility.

The economic and market feasibility for a wood bat collegiate stadium was also explored through this study.

Proposed Youth Complex in Baton Rouge, Louisiana

Cypress Mounds, LLC requested feasibility and design work to be completed by RMD for the viability of a high end, first class, synthetic tournament and league facility in one of the fastest growing areas in Baton Rouge.  With the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina doubling the cities’ population and turning it into the states population and business capital overnight, detailed and in depth demographical analysis was key to the success of this project.  A six field complex was proposed and is currently undergoing final design work and a construction document phase has been arranged.  This complex will be on of the top facilities in the nation as far as field quality, but more importantly will serve as a gathering place for both old and new citizens of Baton Rouge.

Pennsylvania Indoor Training Facility

Private-Party, Christian and Tammie Duran, obtained RMD for a feasibility and economic impact study of a patented, one-of-a-kind indoor/outdoor baseball training facility.  The indoor baseball specific training facility will be an attraction for youth teams as well as high school, college, and professional teams.  If constructed, the training facility will include over 300,000 square feet of indoor training, and will have one of the largest air structures in North America.
