Baseball stadium in Washington, D.C.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nationals Park is a baseball stadium along the Anacostia River in the Navy Yard neighborhood of Washington, D.C. It is the ballpark of Major League Baseball's Washington Nationals. It was completed in 2008, and was the first LEED-certified green major professional sports stadium in the United States. Designed by HOK Sport and Devrouax & Purnell Architects and Planners, the ballpark was initially expected to cost $670 million, with a later price tag of $693 million to build, financed almost entirely by D.C. This amount included $135 million in an upfront payment from taxpayer funds.
