Bank One Ballpark: A Unique Baseball Experience
From its signature swimming pool to its retractable roof, Bank One Ballpark has become one of the game's most recognizable landmarks in just a few seasons. Since the air- conditioned facility first opened its doors to a regular-season game on March 31, 1998, nearly 15 million baseball fans have enjoyed the opportunity to watch the Arizona Diamondbacks without worrying about Phoenix's summer heat or monsoon storms.
Owned by Maricopa County, the 49,033-capacity ballpark joins nearby America West Arena in making downtown Phoenix the sports hub of the Valley of the Sun. It is located just one block east of AWA, home of the NBA's Phoenix Suns and NHL's Phoenix Coyotes. The ballpark is bounded by Jefferson Street on the north, Fourth street on the west and Seventh Street on the east. Easiest freeway access is by taking the Seventh Street exit from either I-10 (turn south) or I-17 (turn north).
With an elevation of approximately 1,100 feet above sea level, Bank One Ballpark is the second-highest facility in the major leagues, trailing only Coors Field in Denver. Scientists have estimated that a fly ball will travel seven feet farther for every 1,000 feet of altitude.
The Structure
Ground was broken on Nov. 16, 1995, for a construction project that took 28 months and cost $354 million. It was designed by Ellerbe Becket, with architect Bill Johnson as the design principal. John Wasson was the project manager for the Arizona Diamondbacks, with Huber, Hunt & Nichols serving as the managing contractor.
The structure incorporates the traditional look of red brick and green structural steel in a setting that blends into its surroundings. Many of the design details are borrowed from the warehouse district that surrounds the Ballpark. One former warehouse, the Stern Produce Building, is actually preserved and incorporated into the south facade of the building. Appropriately, that former food warehouse is used as a commissary for the Ballpark's concessions stands.
The Roof
The retractable roof, comprising 9 million pounds of structural steel, operates on the same tried-and-true technology found in drawbridges and overhead traveling cranes. A pair of 200-horsepower motors open or close the roof in slightly more than four minutes, utilizing more than four miles of cable strung through a pulley system. Each half of the roof consists of three moveable trusses which telescope over a fixed end truss. The east and west sides of the roof can operate either in unison or independently. Either side of the roof can be opened to any position in order to maximize sunlight on the turf and minimize it on the interior steel and concrete.
The Field
It took some experimentation before the turf at Bank One Ballpark hit the Bull's Eye. In this case, it means Bull's Eye Bermuda, which was installed on the playing field over the All-Star Game break in July, 1999, and proved the best solution to date for growing a natural grass field in a roofed facility.
For the 2000 season, the playing field was Bull's Eye Bermuda, overseeded with Kentucky blue grass and perennial rye grass.
Even though more than half of the Diamondbacks' games are played with the retractable room in a closed position, the turf receives sunlight at every opportunity. Even on game days, the roof remains open into the afternoon to allow maximum exposure. When areas of the field receive too little natural sunlight, large incandescent growth lights provide a substitute.
The layout of the field includes a unique, visible feature that takes baseball fans at Bank One Ballpark back in time almost 100 years. There is a dirt path between the pitchers mound and home plate, reminiscent of the paths seen in very early pictures of the game. In a way, that path is symbolic of the Bank One Ballpark experience: The best of baseball history displayed in a setting that features all the modern conveniences.
Keeping Cool
The 8,000-ton cooling system is the equivalent of air conditioning for more than 2,500 typical Arizona homes. The system incorporates air handlers and a large cooling tower on the south side of the Ballpark. The air handlers push 1.2 million cubic feet of air per minute across cooling coils containing water chilled to 48 degrees (several degrees cooler than an average residential system). The system, which is designed to bring the temperature down by 30 degrees in three hours, is configured to deliver cool air only to the seating areas and concourses. It will not cool the entire volume of the Ballpark.
Seating and Tickets
Because Bank One Ballpark is a baseball-only facility, its sight lines are second to no other facility. More than 80 percent of the seats are inside the foul poles, and there is no upper deck around the outfield. What's more, the seats down the foul lines beyond the infield are slightly canted so that no fan will have to twist his or her body to look toward second base and the pitcher's mound.
All lower-deck seating is directly accessible from the lower concourse, which is at the same level as the outside pedestrian entry plazas and gates. The concourse itself is open to the playing field so fans can stay in touch with the game while using the concessions, merchandise store or other amenities.
The Infiniti Diamond Level concourse is designed to serve as a continuous lounge and dining area servicing approximately 4,400 club seats. Above those seats are 69 private luxury suites designed to offer the utmost in comfort and catering. One floor up from the suite level, the upper concourse will seat approximately 20,000 fans. Escalators on the west side of Bank One Ballpark will take guests to either of the upper levels.
Located on the Infiniti Diamond Level, the new Nextel Business Center will create an opportunity for product demonstrations and personal contact with companies using the Center for pre-game meetings and other corporate functions.
Finally, behind the centerfield wall is the Shamrock Farms Picnic Pavillion with seats available to individuals or groups. The Pavilion has picnic tables on tiers to allow approximately 600 fans a full view of the action while enjoying a picnic or family gathering. During the 1999 National League Division Series, a portion of the picnic area was converted into an overflow press box.
Food
The main concourse and the upper concourse feature approximately a quarter mile of concession stands, offering traditional ballpark fare, while specialty stands located throughout the park give fans their choice of such treats as McDonald's (Bank One Ballpark is the only major-league facility in the United States to have the Golden Arches inside), Blimpie's sandwiches, Peter Piper Pizza and Garcia's Mexican food. Fans will also find specialty ice cream, yogurt, smoothies, shaved ice and specialty popcorn. There's even a farmer's market. Coyote Kitchen Fresh Fruit offers a selection of fresh fruits and vegetables.
Now available at all games, the new Taste of the Majors Stand features special menu items for each National League team along with a number of original Diamondback favorites like chicken tenders with fries and Diamondback Dogs.
Friday's Front Row Sports Grill, located in the left-field corner of the Ballpark, gives fans an opportunity to enjoy fine food and beverages while they watch the game from terraced seating. Friday's Front Row is open 363 days a year from 11 a.m. to 12 midnight. Game Day table seating can be purchased by calling the Arizona Diamondbacks Ticket Office or Friday's Front Row. Fifty percent of the ticket price is credited to your food and beverage bill.
On the Infiniti Diamond Level, the Arizona Baseball Club in the right-field corner fills the needs of fans in the club seats or luxury suites.
MasterCard Pool Pavilion
On a warm evening in Phoenix, some folks like to relax around the pool. Others prefer to go to the ballgame. Patrons of the MasterCard Pool Pavilion at Bank One Ballpark will be able to do both.
In recreating an upscale Arizona backyard, the MasterCard Pool Pavilion gives about 35 guests the opportunity to see the Diamondbacks play while enjoying a swimming pool, hot tub, fountains, catering and other amenities.
The MasterCard Pool Pavilion is located next to the outfield wall in right-center. With the pool approximately 415 feet from home plate, home runs occasionally make a splash. When a Diamondback homers, water cannons celebrate by firing streams 30 to 35 feet into the air.
Parking
Like any downtown sports facility, Bank One Ballpark utilizes the established parking infrastructure for its guests. An attached 1,500-car parking garage will provide parking for guests on the Infiniti Diamond Level. Away from the park, downtown Phoenix boasts some 33,000 parking spaces within a 15-minute walk of Bank One Ballpark. The Diamondbacks estimate that about 15,000 spaces are necessary to accommodate a sellout crowd.
Fox Sports Arizona DiamondTown
While Bank One Ballpark offers fans up-to-the-minute amenities and comfort, it also evokes a sense of baseball's history and tradition. Nowhere is this more evident than on the main concourse in Fox Sports Arizona DiamondTown. Fox Sports Arizona DiamondTown is open for viewing during scheduled tours and during ballpark events. DiamondTown brings excitement to Bank One Ballpark year-round. Video walls, a graphic timeline and three-dimensional exhibits give Diamondbacks fans 10 themed areas featuring the best of baseball history.
Music
Traditional baseball means organ music, and Bank One Ballpark has some of the best in the talented fingers of Bobby Freeman. He moved into the major leagues without a hitch in 1998 after being a long-time fan favorite as organist for the Pacific Coast League's Phoenix Firebirds.
