I realize this is some kind of insidious corporate ad campaign, but this site has some pretty awesome computer animated flyby videos of the five new ballparks currently under construction in Oakland, New York (both Mets and Yankees), Washington, and Minnesota.

It’s interesting to see how much the new Yankee Stadium is going to look just like the old one. The new Mets stadium, Citi Field, seems dispiritingly boring and non-distinctive to me, virtually indistinguishable from all the other HOK parks, but then again, maybe that is fitting since it is replacing the dispiritingly mediocre Shea Stadium.
