POLAR PARK: Home of the Woo Sox!

IBEW Local 103 and Ostrow Electric teamed up with Worcester IBEW Local 96 in a strategic partnership to build Polar Park, which is scheduled to host its Opening Day on April 7, 2021. The park will have capacity to hold 10,000 guests, and the project will create 500 full-time and 2,000 part time jobs for local families.

Polar Park is located right off of Interstate 290 in the Canal District of Worcester. Phase One will create 225 market rate apartments, a 150-room hotel, a second boutique hotel consisting of approximately 100 to 110 rooms overlooking the ballpark, and 65,000 square feet of retail/restaurants by January 1, 2021.
