I was told that the seats that the 1st 4 seats in the Prom Reserved sections on the aisle are in fact considered obstructed view and would not be available for full season sales (although we've heard differently).

    There are some parts of the ballpark that feature minor obstructions such as being in the outfield and not being able to see if it's a home run or caught if it was happening right below you.
    Definately 524. Notice the handicap seats in front on the other pic.

    Oh and for all those people curious on what those round cement circles they were making in front of the Retunda. I asked about that also and they told me they were going to be a fountain and some flowers. The old Apple is going near where the new bullpen is by the enterence on 126th st.

    This will end the debate of the plexiglass view.
    Besides the railing you view will still be great
    Cool, I'm basically about 16 seats to the left of this and Saltzy is only 8 seats over. Now if only we could get that elusive photo from seated in row 1 to determine if you are gazing over or at the railing.

    nice pics.. now we get an idea of how is going to be the view in prominade reserv.
    it loos like no osbstuction view with the glass( clear view). but could have some ob for the aisle seats with people going up and down the stairs.
    I disagree. THAT is the landing between 523 and 524 IMO.

    Great pics and info trucky! A fountain will look really cool there.

    Great pix guys! We are all jealous.

    Cmoreeo, did you sit in any of the front row seats in the prom. level? I've been wondering since the beginning if I'll be looking over or through the railing.

    By the way, this would be a "perfect" picture of my exact seats (the last 4 on the aisle) if the pointing arm wasn't in the way!

    LOL.

    I could not tell what that was lol.. We were only there for a min or two. Well I work for Delta Air Lines and we do the Charters for the Mets. I am one of a few guys that over see's the screening process after the games of the players.. (the Mets and visiting teams we charter) I go to the stadium and ride back to the airport with the teams on the coach buses. We went over there yesterday to check out where the process will be done. While we were there we got a tour. Here is a picture of me on the bus with Delgado last season. In fact Beltran took my phone and took the picture for me.

    I'm in 522 row6..the view from the promenade looks great at CF. Looks like the loge or Mezz at Shea, but not even nearly as close to the field.

    I could get comfortable up there. Thanks for the pics and please let us know how you got the tour.

    It sucks doing the charters because I am not aloud to ask for any autographs from the players ( its a professional thing ) but some of the guys talk to me and know me by face. Which is pretty cool

    So no drunks FALL over the edge
    It was either plexiglass or railings
    They decided for the former - Besides most new ballparks use the plexiglass

    Yes, all of the stairways around the promenade have plexiglass surrounds.
