the last park standing will be....

[Honus Wagner Rules]

2012. It opened in 1962.

I stand corrected. Candlestick Park opened in 1960. I always get those two ballpark's openings mixed up.

Fenway
they saw the light remodeled and put 15000 premiums in place

I think Most Dodger fans would disagree with you on that one. I've spoken to my Dodger fan buddies and they simply love Dodger Stadium. Let's not forget that Dodger Stadium is coming up on 50 years in 2010. So it has its own long history.

Longer than the Brooklyn Dodgers had Ebbets Field (1913-57).

I went with the the friendly confines of Wrigley field.

Fenway there is just so much they can add to that place before they just have a build a new park, it will eventually get so out of date, so cramped and so run down that they will just build a new park. The designs they had for the "New " Fenway a couple of years back where pretty good and they could go with that and have a great park that honors Fenway in a really good way. (I think this will happen sooner then you think!)

Dodgers Stadium is "newer" then the other two but I could see a new park modern park in LA, I know there is allot of love for Dodger's stadium but it dosen't have the same of the other two.

Wrigley is just such a part of the Cubs image and soul of the team even more then Fenway and the RedSox. It's almost like the ballpark is more important then the team! It's such an icon and such a part of the culture of the Cubs and Chicago that they will hang on to it as long as possible.

An earthquake tomorrow could compromise Dodger Stadium.

This to me is really the only thing that is relevant to this question. Has Dodger Stadium ever been seriously damaged by an earthquake? Was it built to withstand earthquakes?

As long as the structural integrity of Dodger Stadium is not significantly compromised by an earthquake, it seems likely that it will easily outlast either Fenway or Wrigley since it is so much younger. Also the relatively dry weather of LA has to be a plus to help against things like rust, rot, and corrosion.

Technically speaking, Tiger Stadium is still standing!

[four tool]

Even though I'm a Red Sox fan, I voted for Wrigley because of Fenway's limitations. Dodger, despite the age factor, is iffy because of a possible earthquake.

Fenway will be

A new ballpark may be built for the Red Sox, but Fenway will still be standing, used by the Sox as a minor league park, or used by the city, colleges, and surrounding towns. The Sox can make a mint renting it out for rock stars, weddings, cremations, wakes, you name it.

There has aready been an attempt to get Fenway on the Historical Register. As soon as Jhenry makes noises about a "new Fenway", the attempt will be revived.

i'd like a new ballpark, but Fenway stays. it's the biggest tourist attraction in Boston.

They'll use it for the "medical professional league," and dentist Jim Lonborg will return to Fenway as the ace. When the Red Sox Docs play the Yankee Docs, George "Doc" Medich will be the ace on the opposing hill.

[whoisonit]

Dodger Stadium will last forever.
No weather extremes to worry about out there, it's half a century newer than the other 2 & the Dodgers are embarking on a half billion dollar renovation of it.

I suppose an humongous earthquake could do it in though. I wonder where they'ld play if something like that happened. Anahiem ? The Los Angeles Dodgers of Anahiem ? Wouldn't that be ironic.

According to a tour guide, Fenway Park will apply for Historic Preservation Status in 2012 after turning 100 years old. You don't see too many historic buildings being torn down anymore. So it has to be Fenway.

Even if Fenway Park applies for this status it doesn't guarantee it will get nor does it guarantee the Red Sox will play there forever.

I voted for Dodger Stadium. Fenway and Wrigley are both 40+ years older.

[six4three]

Dodger Stadium. For all the reasons listed.

After that, I'd say Wrigley - it means more to the Cubs than the other two stadiums mean to their teams. Heck, it's a bigger draw than the team itself.

The Red Sox have already tried to replace Fenway once, they'll try again. Next time, I think they might succeed.

[inthecards21]

Dodger Stadium for one reason-50,000+ seats. Fenway will get too crowded and some greedy owner will take over the Cubs and build a new park.
