Twins ballpark: Modern or traditional?
Minneapolis City Council Member Lisa Goodman wants to make sure the new stadium doesn't "stick out like a sore thumb," according to an article in the Downtown Journal. Although new stadium plans won't be released for another month, an HOK Sports spokesman says materials may include "Minnesota limestone, ironwork, glass walls and exposed structural steel." The $522 million ballpark is due to open in 2010. One thing is certain: Fans will be able to enjoy plenty of sun at the outdoor stadium.
