Training Ground?
with a little bit of help from ai AI Overview The "Glasshouse extension" refers to a proposed development by the Melbourne Racing Club (MRC) to relocate the existing Glasshouse venue to a new two-storey building in the north-eastern car park of the racecourse. This new venue will be a larger entertainment complex featuring a bistro, sports bar, function space, and a new TAB area with 105 poker machines. The project has faced some local opposition due to concerns about increased noise and its proximity to residential areas. Key details of the proposal Purpose: To relocate and expand the existing Glasshouse venue. New location: A new site in the north-eastern car park area of the racecourse, approximately 200 meters from its current location. Facilities: The new two-storey building will include the Glasshouse, a new entry forecourt, and the historic Tea Room. New features: The development will feature a larger sports bar, expanded function areas, and a new TAB area with 105 poker machines. Operating hours: The new venue is proposed to operate from 8 AM to 4 AM. Community reaction The proposal has generated some local controversy, with residents raising concerns about increased noise and potential impact on the quality of life for those living near the reserve. Some residents have also expressed frustration that community sports facilities were not prioritized in funding discussions. Other residents and council members have supported the plan, viewing it as a way to increase public use and activity in the area. Status of the project The proposal has been submitted to the Glen Eira City Council. Community consultation has taken place, but opinions remain divided. There are ongoing discussions regarding the impact of the development on the local community and the racecourse reserve.

MFC membership levels for noobs
look up melbourne membership for say redlegs and tridents, if this suits your budget. take note of seat numbers available then find the mcg seating web site. on here you can enter a seat number and then look at the view as if sitting there and compare to other options. remember to check if seat is undercover or not, if important to you. then talk to membership. sooner the better so you have max seat options left. note all reserved seats tickets currently come with grand final guarantee (approx adds $200 pa to ticket cost)

just fyi land height (not platform or rail height) at caulfield station is approx 38m land height at glen huntly park is approx 49m so there is an 11m height difference north to south with the slope down to the north this means ovals will probably be dug in quite a few metres on one side creating an embankment which would be good for viewers without affecting sight lines for racing. Probably deep enough to allow for some lockable storage facilities to avoid the wasted time of moving gear as at aami above heights are not precise for exact placement sites, but a reasonable indication

ps the area involved in the above is just the carpark area currently part of the mrc lease the ovals area is separate and part of the trust property
-
Training Ground?
if the area involved stays part of the mrc lease, they get the rental income from mfc if the area involved reverts back to the trust they get a reduction in fees from the trust of course in both cases they get the privilege of having the great mfc as a neighbour 🤣
