The things I think about during the offseason...

Okay, which former MLB parks are still standing? Off the top of my head, I came up with the Astrodome, Monster Park (or Candlestick), Qualcomm, Olympic Stadium, and the LA Coliseum (home to the Dodgers 1957-61). Correct me if I'm wrong on any of those. But what others are there

Busch won't be standing any more anyway, so that doesn't matter.

I believe Tiger Stadium is still standing. I think Mile High Stadium was torn down when the Broncos built their new place.

I thought Tiger Stadium was still around, but I wasn't 100% sure. I'm glad someone else remembers that.

Tiger Stadium is indeed still standing.

I think you got all of the main ones.

From http://www.ballparks.com/baseball/index.htm

Apparently parts of Braves Field are still standing (http://www.ballparks.com/baseball/national/braves.htm), same goes for Jarry Park in Montreal which has also been converted (http://www.ballparks.com/baseball/national/jarryp.htm. Colt Stadium was dismantled and rebuilt in Mexico (if that counts... http://www.ballparks.com/baseball/national/coltst.htm)

There are also a couple parts of Forbes Field still around, mainly part of the outfield wall.

Home plate too......its in the hallway of a building at Pitt, under glass.

Which I read had to actually be moved slightly, otherwise it would've been in a women's restroom.

The 49ers still play at Candlestick

yankee stadium will still be standing when the new one is built.

[onion_skins]

No, it won't. There was a plan proposed where the stadium would remain, but the current plan is to demolish the stadium, but keep the field intact as part of the replacement park being created to replace Macombs Dam Park, which the new stadium will be built on.

[sir_jingo]

well my bad. I had only read the proposal to keep it standing.

Is Exhibation Stadium still standing?

And I believe that the Metrodome will be standing when and if the Twins get a new park, same with Pro Player.

Exhibition Stadium was torn down in 1999.

[sir_jingo]

how much of that looks like the 1879 version?

Only place with the bleachers covered and the regular seating uncovered.
