Abstract
- The author offers opinions on Fenway Park, the baseball field of the Boston Red Sox baseball team located in Boston, Massachusetts, on the occasion of its 100th anniversary. The appeal of the field to baseball fans is said to lie in both its place in the sport's history due to its age and in its irregular architectural design, as exemplified by the large wall bordering left field. The contrast between the design of Fenway Park and that of baseball stadiums built in the late 20th and 21st century is said to be that while the latter offer more conveniences for spectators, Fenway Park offers more intimacy.
