Camden Yards – The Ballpark That Changed the Game

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

  • Cal Ripken Jr.’s 2,131st consecutive game — baseball’s Iron Man broke the unbreakable record here.

  • Home Run Derby 1993: Ken Griffey Jr. hitting the warehouse.

  • The 2014 ALDS sweep — when the O’s stunned the Tigers with power and swagger.

Camden Yards brought postseason energy back to Baltimore — and gave fans a reason to believe again.

Charm and Character in Every Brick

  • Vintage signage, old-style scoreboard digits, and a view of the city skyline.

  • Crab cakes in the concourse and Eutaw Street brew stands.

  • A place that’s both retro and alive — a true modern classic.
