Construction Trends in Professional Baseball Stadiums --
Everything Old is New Again
[ send me this paper ]
This 8 page report discusses the
current trends in the construction of professional baseball
stadiums. The technology and construction is top of the line
high-tech while the theme and the style is a return to
classicism. Stadiums such as Camden Yard in Baltimore and
Comerica Park in Detroit (with its merry-go-round and Ferris
wheel) attempt to make every effort to recreate the kinder,
gentler days of baseball in the age of Babe Ruth or Lou Gehrig.
The new stadiums also want to seat more people, attract more
fans, increase advertising and sponsorship revenue, and serve
more food and drink that include such traditional baseball fare
as cappuccino and microbrew ale. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
