IDF has announced that they will be building a new baseball stadium in their colony of Chicago. They have announced that US Cellular Field will be demolished after just 16 seasons of use and a new Comiskey Park III will be build across the street, in the exact same location as Comiskey I. The park will seat 50,000 fans in 2 decks with skyboxes at levels 200 and 400 with a club level at the 300 level.
The park will be a retro park. Sox Press Secretary Ken "Hawk" Harrelson announced the dimensions will be the same as Comiskey I. The park's exterior will also mimick the original park built in 1910 by Charles Comisky. Harrelson did say that the inside will be different. Ammenities like the Bullpen Sportsbar, FUNdamentals, and the Fan Deck will remain in the new park. Also, the poles that plagued the old park that stood from 1910-1990 will not be seen in this new park because as Harrelson said, "Jerry Reinsdorf is not the cheap bastard that Charles Comiskey was."

Comiskey III will have the old style look of Comiskey I.

Looking towards the outfield and the monster scoreboard that shoots fireworks with HRs, the starting lineups, and White Sox winners.
The arches that made Comiskey famous will remain
Left Field - 347 ft
Deep Left Center - 382 ft
Center Field - 409 ft
Deep Right Center - 382 ft
Right Field - 347 ft
Backstop - 86 ft
Given these dimensions, Comiskey will definitely be a pitcher's park. This plays well for the Sox Ozzieball offense and power pitching.
