Homeplate Entrance

NW 6th Street-- well not really. It isn't wide enough for traffic so it look like it will be used by pedestrians only.

West Plaza. Note the cleverly disguised anti-terrorism barrier that will be part of the landscaping.

So sleek and simple.

It started to rain. We took refuge in the Sales Headquarters.

I noticed that the sales center outdoor area had the same flooring the ballpark will have in its concourses. The color will depend on what section you're in.

Took a walk down the street towards the Culmer MetroRail Station.

Station is a couple blocks northeast of this bridge over the Miami River. The walk from ballpark to station is ~9 blocks.

Great pics ! Any chance you can get a few shots of the left field seats ? Thinking of buying but the next tour that I can make is a few weeks away.

I went by today. The stainless steel accents on the garages are going to have spotlights on them. It's going to look gorgeous at night.
