Decision on Everett stadium site is this Wednesday

EVERETT — The City Council is expected to decide where Everett’s future stadium will be located with a vote at its meeting Dec. 18. The meeting will include a public hearing. This week, the council will hear a briefing on the matter. The choice is between plunging money into rehabilitating Funko Field  at Everett Memorial Stadium, near 39th and Broadway, or building a new stadium on a 12.5-acre footprint near the northeast corner of Broadway and Wall Street a block east of Angel of the Winds Arena downtown. The latter demolishes some downtown buildings. Both will solidify keeping the Everett AquaSox minor league baseball team.
