Camden Yards – The Ballpark That Changed the Game
Published by FanStubs
A New Era Begins in Baltimore
When Oriole Park at Camden Yards opened in 1992, it changed stadium design forever. Gone were the cookie-cutter stadiums of the 1970s. Camden Yards reintroduced brick facades, city skylines, and baseball intimacy — and every new park since has borrowed from it.
Warehouse Walls and Eutaw Street
The ballpark’s most recognizable feature? The B&O Warehouse beyond right field. It’s part of the ballpark — not just scenery. Eutaw Street runs between the warehouse and the stands, a fan walkway filled with plaques marking home run landings.
Only a handful of players — including Ken Griffey Jr. — have ever hit the warehouse on the fly.
Classic Moments in a Modern Classic
