Andy Borgman, who grew up in Fort Wayne and now lives in Alpharetta, Georgia, has posted his feelings about Parkview Field on his blog.
In fact, Andy shared some photos and feelings about Gwinnett Stadium in an earlier AFW Blog post.
He compares it to Gwinnett Stadium in Georgia:
[…] Gwinnett spent $60 million to build their new stadium. Fort Wayne spent $30 million.
Gwinnett stadium is basically a glorified Single-A ballpark with some nice suites and a open entrance. The park has no character. It has no theme.
[…] Parkview Field is designed to Double-A standards and everything, and I mean everything is done thematically. Playing off the Johnny Appleseed team name, everything is related. Sections are called “The Tree Tops” and “The Orchard.” Seats are green. It sits beautifully placed within the city skyline in the background. And it is bringing people downtown.
Thanks for sharing your comments – againPar , Andy!
