This park was refreshingly novel at the time it was built, but now it just seems generic -- a not-very-memorable variation on the "retro" idea. Sure the amenities are nothing to complain about, and the design does have a few interesting quirks as do all parks of its type; however, it does lack the big "attention getter" -- the signature feature that really stands out and sets a park apart from the others -- like the Green Monster at Fenway, the warehouse at Camden Yards, the ivy-covered walls at Wrigley, bay view at Pac Bell, the left-field arches at Enron, the yellow bridge at PNC, the white edifice spanning center field at Arlington, etc. Also I'm not crazy about the big gaudy scoreboard (almost as bad as the one in Detroit), nor the layer upon layer of suites that push the upper deck up to the stratosphere.
