A Superior Court judge issued a ruling Wednesday afternoon saying that the renovation of White Stadium is not in violation of state laws.

The order from Judge Matthew Nestor counts as a major victory for the City of Boston and the new professional women’s soccer team that hopes to begin playing in the renovated stadium next March.

Nestor’s order that the “Stadium Parcel is not subject to Article 97” and is in no violation of any other laws stops the plaintiffs — the Emerald Necklace Conservancy and individuals who live near the Franklin Park stadium parcel — from halting the project.

March 2027? Given the current conditions it seems doable, but aggressive and with a lot of built-in assumptions. Or is the plan to be able play games with only the city's portion complete and limited seating? Assume there's no publicly available construction schedule?

I'm somewhat fascinated by the fact that this is being called a "renovation."

Was there anything worth saving that wasn’t saved?

Crazy to see. Didn’t think it would really happen. So many memories here, I played football, participated and attended track events, watched thanksgiving high school games. It will be interesting to see how this will turn out.
