July 22, 200916 yr I wonder if management will have anything somewhere in the new ballpark regarding history of baseball in Miami, and History of the Orange Bowl. It would be kinda cool to see something like a picture of the August 7th, 1956 Miami Marlins game played at the Orange Bowl. However not sure it would have anything to do with the current Marlins. Does anyone know if there is any footage or pics of that game?
July 22, 200916 yr Digging it so much! I was going to go to the groundbreaking but had family over here (went to bed at 7am... should have just stayed up and gone... *sniffs*) Anyway, I like the blue seats, I would have hated them in teal or black or something like that. Blue or Green, that' s fine with me. ANyone know more about the "water feature" at center? And yes, there is a picture of baseball played in the Orange Bowl. A black and white. I'll see if I can dig it up.
July 22, 200916 yr Miami Marlins - 1956 @ The OB Vs. Columbus Jets Awesome. Thanks. Right field looks like it was 200 feet away. My goodness.

I'll see if I can dig it up. They would never do black, but I for one think that if you are going to build a new stadium for specific baseball team, the seats should match the team color. But Loria is probably going to unveil the all-orange Miami Marlins at some point anyway.
July 23, 200916 yr I doubt the seat colors are set in stone. I've seen three different rendering with three different colors in the last few months (Gray, Teal, and now Blue).
July 23, 200916 yr Is that a raised field I see? (That is the seats are slightly below field level). And protected from foul balls by glass-like panels? Great idea. Gives the rich folks an interesting view. Maximizes space too.

But Loria is probably going to unveil the all-orange Miami Marlins at some point anyway. Hopefully not that. We dont need any reminders of the Orioles, or Mets. However, if they do maybe they will use the original Miami Marlins uniform. That would be OK I guess. Or they may use some kind of Teal/Blue/White combination. The Padres seem to have colors similar in uniform and in the seats. Seeing that Loria is an art evaluator, hopefully this will be interesting.

Gives the rich folks an interesting view. Maximizes space too. Thats cool. It looks like the seats may be below ground level, and possibly at the same level as the dugout floor.
July 24, 200916 yr I actually really like this blue color for the seats. Orange? Absolutely not, at least for me. I really do like this blue color for the seats.
July 24, 200916 yr ive been looking at the web cam and the seem to be flattening out the dirt, what are they doing this for? the cement coming in? just wondering

July 24, 200916 yr color combination sucks...I rather see the seats orange, than this blue color Something I never want to see again in my life is empty orange seats.
