Here's what the Rogers Centre's new $300 million upgrades will look like Toronto RogersCentre
"That era of stadiums were symmetrical, homogenous, meant for multiple sports," said Shapiro on Thursday, suggesting that these renovations will bring the stadium closer to a true ballpark, further distancing the dome from its multipurpose past as a combined football and baseball venue.
The most substantial change for fans and players will be a long-rumoured reconfiguration of the lower bowl. Changes to seating and bullpen configurations will shift outfield walls in a way that will almost certainly result in more home runs cranked. The left-field bullpen is to be topped by a Bullpen Patio where fans can take in drinks while checking in on bullpen activity.
Renovations include creating new elevated seats near the foul poles with a curved protrusion that puts fans closer to the action. New patio-style seating will even be added to the dreary 500 level.
