PORT Melbourne’s North Port Oval will finally get its $4.7 million redevelopment.

The plan was first considered in 2008 and since then delays have plagued the project, including tests revealing the playing surface was contaminated.

The final detailed designs were approved at a council meeting this month and Port Phillip Mayor Frank O’Connor said building of the new stand and refurbishment of the Norm Goss Stand would start soon.

The entrance could be called the BUSTER HARLAND GATES.
Fred Cook end behind the goals is a natural. Frankie Johnson pocket.
The Gary Barrel Brice Wing.
Jason Borough Bar sounds good as well as the Bobby Borough canteen with those famous borough burgers.
The wing where the Port faithful stand could be called the BOROUGH HILL.

Ever since I watched Supersize me I have never ever stepped foot to McDonald's, Hungry Jack's, Red Rooster or any of those junk places.
Give me a BURRA BURGER ANY DAY !!!

Port has the burra burger, Williamstown has the Willy Dog
Any other great food items at VFL grounds ?

Maybe at Vic Park you can have the forty day old stale pie ??

I drove past the ground yesterday. No sign of construction had started. The old kiosk and toilets are still up.
