Sited on an old lumberyard, Fluor Field at the West End is an exciting anchor in downtown Greenville's revitalization effort. The 5,000-seat ballpark was designed by DLR Group to fit nicely along Main Street, featuring reclaimed bricks from a local textile mill and industrial finishes that echo the facility's historic location. The design team transformed a firehouse near the Main Street entry plaza into the team's ticketing outlet and novelty store for fans.
The stadium pays homage to the Greenville Drive's affiliate team, the Boston Red Sox, and includes an asymmetrical, natural grass playing field; a large replica of the manual scoreboard; and a 30-foot high green wall along the left field wall that is reminiscent of the "Green Monster" at Fenway Park. Eighteen suites and a rooftop party deck add to the ballpark's draw, with record-breaking attendance in 2006 and 2007.
Fluor Field was named 2006 "Ballpark of the Year" by Baseballparks.com
