About
- Completed in 2009, it is the home field of the New York Mets of the National League East division of Major League Baseball.
- The stadium was built as a replacement for the adjacent Shea Stadium, which opened in 1964.
- The $850 million baseball park was funded with $615 million in public subsidies, including the sale of NYC municipal bonds that are to be repaid by the Mets plus interest.
- The first game at Citi Field was on March 29, 2009, with a college baseball game between St. John’s and Georgetown.
- Citi Field has a capacity of 41,922. It has over 15,000 fewer seats than Shea Stadium.
- All the seats in the park are green – in an homage to the Polo Grounds, longtime home of the baseball Giants and the original home of the Mets.
- The front entrance of Citi Field features a rotunda named after Brooklyn Dodgers legend Jackie Robinson and honors his life and accomplishments.
- Behind the center-field scoreboard is the FanFest area, an expanded family entertainment area that includes a miniature wiffleball field replica of Citi Field called Mr. Met’s Kiddie Field, a batting cage, a dunk tank, video game kiosks and other attractions.
