This has to be one of the most beautiful ballparks in America. Not meaning to impress on pure size (like Reliant Stadium) or Gimmicky construction (astrodome) Minute Maid Park is a piece of true Americana. Beautiful brickwork and “patina” on the structural crossbeams. I echo everyone in saying that it was a great gesture in heritage and an investment in the culture of Houston that the beautiful and historical Union Station railroad building was incorporated instead of demolished. The entire stadium calls back memories of old trainstations, historical ballparks, and generally everything beautiful and idealistic about baseball and america in general. I’ve gone to this park more times than I can count, Playoffs and games you wouldn’t even want to admit you went to. Just remember even if the game is terrible (it seldomly is) You still have cold beer, hotdogs, sunny days, and friends there with you. Baseball is more than a sport, it’s an experience.
