Dodger Stadium Perfect Blend Of Modernism And History

"The park, designed by architect-engineer Emil Praeger — with plenty of detailed input from owner Walter O'Malley — was streamlined and forward-looking. But it also had an unshakable sense of place: Though it incorporated details from baseball's oldest parks — particularly the steeply pitched upper decks that keep fans in the cheap seats close to the action — it was loosely informal and extensively landscaped, taking advantage of its spacious hilltop site. It didn't take long for Praeger's stadium to earn a reputation as the best-designed ballpark in the major leagues."
