The Tampa Bay Rays released new renderings for their proposed $1.3 billion stadium in downtown St. Petersburg on Thursday.

The stadium will be built as part of the Historic Gas Plant District Development, with the expectation that it will be open by Opening Day in 2028 if the St. Petersburg City Council and the Pinellas County Commission approve of the plans.

The club's current lease agreement with the city expires in 2027.

"Our baseball park will be the most intimate and inviting in the sport," Rays' President Matt Silverman said in a statement.
