Great job Joe. I've gotta say, as much as the Mets can't help but F up everything they touch, they've built an aesthetically beautiful ballpark.

Much as I loved Shea, I gotta say there's something "Home" about the inside of this place. I was expecting it to forever feel like an Away park. Looks really nice. Of course, it won't really feel like home until someone fires the first t-shirt.

I'm not sure if (for me) it feels like anything yet. It's simply pleasant to look at.

I imagine that after this upcoming year of Mets baseball there will be enough negatively-charged "Ghostbusters II"-esque psychic goo sliming the walls of that place to truly call it home.

Fixed.

Of course the bridge in the outfield could be the place the fans jump off when the team collapses again.

Not after they hear how much the Wilpons charge for that.

They should name it The Span of NPG then.

For me, it won't really feel like home until the women's room in the upper deck smells like urine. So unless the fan base changes, by the second homestand the latest.

Great photos Joe. Thanks !

Looks great....really looks like they took CBP and Camden yards and merged them into 1 park.

Sorry, does absolutely nothing for me. The only redeemable feature is more room in the aisles so you can get to your seat without stepping on or over people.

kingdiggler · 12-03-2008, 12:26 PM

I really wonder how the park will play? I don't think I want another CBP in the NL east.

Give it a couple of seasons and you'll be able to play flag football in the stands without stepping on or over people.
