Newest Baseball Stadiums
(2017) SunTrust Park – Atlanta, GA
- Opened for its first regular season game on April 14th, 2017 against the San Diego Padres. Located in the Atlanta Metropolitan area, it features a 90-feet wide canopy horseshoeing around the stadiums top. Just beyond center-field, there are 3 evergreen trees and an area with boulders as well as a waterfall feature. The ballpark holds 41,149 people and places the highest percentage of seats closer to the field then any other MLB ballpark.
(2012) Marlins Park – Miami, FL
- The last ballpark to be built before Atlanta’s SunTrust Park, Marlins Park is the sixth ballpark to feature a retractable roof and is considered the “greenest” park in the MLB. The ballpark was designed to capture the feel of Miami and its previous parks, with an asymmetrical outfield fence and other homages to Sun Life Stadium and the Orange Bowl.
(2010) Target Field – Minnesota, MN
- After playing 28 seasons inside the Metrodome, the Twins decided to head back outside in Minneapolis in 2010, playing in their own baseball-specific ballpark for the first time in team history. Despite the weather conditions in Minneapolis that prompted the construction of the Metrodome in 1982, Target Field was not constructed with a retractable roof, although it does contain heated viewing areas.
