The Bridge Sports Complex

2 3 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE VOLUME 9, ISSUE 11 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE VOLUME 9, ISSUE 11 THE BRIDGE SPORTS COMPLEX B ridgeport is a small West Virginian city full of charm. With an enviable central location within two hours north of Charleston and two hours south of Pittsburgh, expect to feel welcomed by the many small-town perks and easy access to city amenities. Among the facilities that the city offers is the impressive Bridge Sports Complex built roughly 12 years ago. The City of Bridgeport had allocated funding to construct a local hospital at the time and this required the purchase of vacant land. During the construction of the hospital, it was determined that the entire property was needed and a $9 million baseball complex was built for the community on the remaining lands. Since then, the facilities have grown into an all-encompassing sports complex, meeting all community needs for exercise and health. And, while the city is small in population, roughly 9,000 people, the outlying areas also desired access to the facilities.
