Ballparks Then and Now
Ballparks are becoming more advanced and fan friendly. There has been six new stadiums built in the last three to four years, and 8 more are on the way. Does it have something to do with the stadiums falling apart or just the fact that fans need something new? Some new stadiums try to stay with some of the same features from their old stadiums and some go to something totally different. What has changed in the style of the inner and outer parts of ballparks? Have the changes, the use of technology and art in the ballparks bettered the overall environment of the game of baseball. Stadiums of the old have special items about them, like the green monster in Boston or the ivy on the wall in Wrigley but also have things that people hate. With the new parks built, the environment is supposed to change for the best baseball experience possible. A few big baseball cities have all gone from old parks with lots of problems to beautiful stadiums that people awe over. Boston has the oldest stadium currently being used in the majors. It has been in use since 1912, when it was built, by Osborn Engineering (ballparksofbaseball.com 1). It took one year to complete and it was built on concrete and steel.
