Fenway Park
Current Park Economic Impact New Ballpark Economic Impact
Supports 1,608 jobs through Greater Boston Economy Intangible factors important, yet difficult to quantify Large initial affects from construction Long-term fiscal obligations and lack of “net new” economic growth

Fenway Park
• Existing annual economic impact of Fenway Park (in 2000 dollars) – $127 million in output to the greater Boston economy – $78 million of which contributed towards growth of GRP – Supports 1,608 jobs – Generates $15 million in state and local taxes, produced $93 million in personal income

New Fenway Park Construction Efforts
Creation of 3,900 jobs over four years and generation of $209 million of new GRP Would require a $240 million public subsidy for a construction cost of $422 million Regardless of the impacts created from building a new stadium, would the project spin off enough benefits to justify the financing of this project?

Evaluating the Alternative
• Eight alternative scenarios discussing: – High attendance – Moderate attendance – Conservative attendance – Worst-case attendance – All with constant and high spending constraints
what does REMI say? sm
Results
• • • • Large attendance increases may not materialize and is dependent on future team success Fans tend to have a fixed entertainment dollar they are willing to spend and will not be able to take full advantage of services in and around the ballpark Not all of the additional revenue would be “net new” to the economy Building a new park would require the Red Sox to spend an additional $19 million annually in debt service, compared to their current minimal maintenance costs

St. Louise Ballpark Stadium & Village
Ballpark stadium would replace existing Bush Stadium Ballpark village would be a mixed-use development surrounding the ballpark, including office, retail, restaurant space, parking and entertainment attractions. Financing assumed by State, County & City Government

Results
• • • • • By 2005, near-complete construction would result in a 0.02% gain is GSP ($35.64 mil).
By 2008, there is a drop in GSP due to phase-out of massive construction.
By 2011, construction and operation of Phase One would result in a 0.04% gain in GSP ($90.14 mil).
By 2014, full operation of the ballpark village would result in a 0.06% gain in GSP ($153.77 mil).
By 2034 the economic impact levels off, with the gain of 0.04% in GSP ($134.78 mil).

Employment
• • • • • By 2005, near-complete construction would result in 765 new jobs and $38.84 mil in wages.
By 2008, there is a drop in employment due to phase out of massive construction.
By 2011, construction and operation of Phase One would result in 2,195 new jobs and $116.49 mil in wages.
By 2014, full operation of the ballpark village would result in 3,549 new jobs and $204.28 mil in wages.
By 2034 the economic impact levels off, resulting in 3,092 new jobs and $201.73 mil in wages.

Tax Impacts
• • • • Between 2005-2010 the State of Missouri would experience a net tax cost due to bond payments.
By 2011 the State of Missouri would experience a net tax benefit due to partial ballpark operation.
At full operation between 2014-2034, the State of Missouri would experience a net tax benefit of $12.99 million per annum.
The ballpark project would generate a net tax benefit of $61.68 million NPV between 2002-2034.
