stadiums on satellites

So, I’m messing with Google’s satellite maps, just looking for cool things to look at, when it occurs to me – ballparks are cool things to look at from high above. So, I made a list.

So, I’m messing with Google’s satellite maps, just looking for cool things to look at, when it occurs to me – ballparks are cool things to look at from high above. So, I made a list.

AL East
Camden Yards
Fenway Park
Yankee Stadium
Tropicana Dome
Skydome

AL Central
U.S. Cellular Field
Jacobs Field
Comerica Park
Kauffman Field
The Metrodome
(left side of Minneapolis was coming up oddly)

AL West
Angel Stadium of Anaheim – is there a motorcross event going on?
McAfee Coliseum
Safeco Field
Ameriquest Field in Arlington

NL East
Turner Field
Dolphins Stadium
Shea Stadium
Citizens Bank Park – picture is noticably old; lookat the not-build park.
Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium – very bright compared to the area

NL Central
Wrigley Field
Great American Ballpark – no map
Minute Maid Park
Miller Park – no map
PNC Park at North Shore
Busch Stadium

NL West
Bank One Ballpark
Coors Field
Dodgers Stadium
Petco Park – no centerfield wall yet
SBC Park – seems goofy to have an island of parking lots

Those which just have parking lots for neighbors seem sad and lonely.

Other places

Olympic Stadium – Montreal

RCA Dome – domes are very boring to look at; that’s the AAA Indy Indians ballpark to the left.

Elfstrom Stadium (Kane County Cougars)

Gateway Arch – this works better than I thought it would, because

Grant Park. The softball diamonds a bit south from here look neater, actually.

One thought on “stadiums on satellites”

  1. I meant to say this last night, but my internet was wonky… That island of parking lots by SBC is like 20 bucks a car. Ridiculous. (The Colisseum is like five or ten, and Dodger Stadium is ten I think.)
