Weather causes damage to structure at Hamilton’s $144 million Spooky Nook complex !

Hamilton, OH – The Spooky Nook Sports Complex, Hamilton’s $144 million sports entertainment complex that is in its final stages of construction, suffered weather-related damage early this morning as the heavy wind gusts caused structural steel on one of the buildings to fall to the ground.

Some parts of Greater Cincinnati saw wind gusts above 50 mph, based on storm report information sent to the National Weather Service. Some areas of Dayton recorded gusts above 60 mph.

Executive Director of External Services for Hamilton, Tom Vanderhorst, said Friday that the developer of the project, “made a presentation during this morning’s Hamilton Community Authority meeting stating that the high winds during last night’s storm caused the structural steel in building 500 to fall.  He is not sure how it will impact the project’s schedule.  According to him, they will likely know more information mid-week after the structural engineers and insurance company examine the site.”

Spook Nook officials released a statement via social media to clarify issues caused by last night’s weather at the site.

“No one was on the property at the time and there were no injuries,” according to the statement. “Analysis of the cause and impact on the project schedule will occur over the next couple of days or week, at which time we can provide more information.

Once completed, the project is set to span more than 1.3 million square feet and will be the largest indoor sports complex in North America upon its planned December 2021 opening, according to Spooky Nook representatives.

Of the massive space, 700,000 square feet will be dedicated to the sports complex itself, with two turf fields, 10 hardwood courts, a small baseball facility, concessions and enough space to host up to 30 basketball games at a time included in the amenities. 

The remaining 500,000 square feet will be dedicated to event space and a convention center capable of hosting massive gatherings and trade shows.
