At the New Busch, there is the garish Hardee’s on the Terrace concourse — visible from a large percentage of the park — plus two separate U.S. Cellular walk-in stores on the main concourse.

The top level of this Pavilion houses the Coca-Cola Scoreboard Patio where for either $80 or $100 (depending on whether it’s a “premium” game or not) you can watch the contest from this elevated perch and eat and drink all you want. The restaurant/bar area is incredibly opulent, as befits the $230 pricetag per ticket.

In fact, it seemed to me that every walkway and overlook where the field was visible at all was simply jammed with fans who didn’t have a ticket for a real seat. At the time of this writing, it is merely a graded lot.This also points out that the ballpark was designed with a lot of areas particularly suited to those with “standing room” tickets. HOK wasn’t able to make this an “open concourse” (where you can see the field from everywhere on the concourse, like you can at so many modern-day ballparks) in this part of new Busch, but they did provide extra-wide portals so the sights and sounds of the game are never far away.Another design gripe involves the steps that lead you from the Loge concourse down to the seats behind home plate. This Pavilion is under-roof, which is a good thing when it’s a rainy day (like one of the days I spent at new Busch) or the sun is fearsome. HOK, the architects behind this beautiful ballpark, designed a gateway for the ages, using the Eads Bridge as its inspiration.
Now, in my mind, an Interstate would trump a U.S. Highway, and I would assume that locals would refer to this freeway as I-64. A few days after visiting St. Louis, I attended a game at Dodger Stadium. That stadium was replaced by the third Busch Stadium, built next door in 2006. The team has been incredibly successful, the Cardinals parking themselves into history by winning the World Series in 1926, 1931, 1934, 1942, 1944, 1946, 1964, 1967, 1982, 2006 and 2011. Ballpark 24 – Busch Stadium II. September 5, 2005: St. Louis, Missouri. This was taken from a plane preparing to land at the St. Louis airport.

The new stadium, opened in … That’s because the land where the old park once stood will be developed into a “ballpark village,” with shops, commercial space and even some dwelling places. Busch Stadium and new Busch Stadium construction as viewed on June 16, 2005, from the 28th floor of the Eagleton Courthouse Federal Building in … This is not efficient at all. Urbanistically, Busch Stadium was … Even though the game was a complete sell-out, I was struck by how few “standing room” fans there were. Busch #2 was demolished in 2005, but A-B continued the naming rights for the third Busch, even though they no longer owned the Cardinals. The shots below let you see what this looks like both outside the stadium and from within.The really bad aspect of this is that entryways behind home plate (above left) and near right field are literally in the shadow of this busy highway. The fans, as well has Augie Busch himself, wouldn’t have it any other way!The aerial shot above helps put the ballpark’s location in perspective. Similarly, the foul poles originally erected at new Busch were too wide, and blocked the view of fans seated behind it.

It was not completed during my initial visit to new Busch, but one assumes it will cater to high rollers … but personally, I am never in favor of gambling entities as sponsors at baseball facilities.The crowning achievement of the entryways, though, is Gate 3 behind third base.

Talk about proximity!In thinking about the design of New Busch Stadium, I’m reminded what a ballpark-guru friend of mine (Charlie O’Reilly) once said about Turner Field in Atlanta, with all of its arcade space, museum, restaurants galore, etc.
Now that the team’s fabulous new park has opened its doors, I guess it should be no surprise that it is called Busch Stadium as well.
