The Busch Stadium is home to St. Louis’s favorite baseball team, the St. Louis Cardinals. This
brand new ball park opened in April 2006 and is the third stadium to carry the name of Busch
Stadium.
Named after the team owner Gussie Busch the new Busch Stadium is a wonderfully designed
construction that offers great views of the surrounding St. Louis skyline including famous
landmarks inspired the architecture of the Busch, most notably the Gateway Arch. Several statues
depicting famous Cardinals players such as Stan “The Man” Musial are located at the stadium’s
entrances and along Clark and Eighth Streets.
The inside of the stadium tries to incorporate as many features of the old Busch Stadium
giving it an unmistakably retro feel. The traditional green fences and the red seats have
been recreated while the old score board has been preserved as a memorial.
As a hotel next to Busch Stadium, the
Millennium
Hotel St. Louis puts you in the thick of action when it comes to America’s favorite pastime.
Since the stadium is located less than a block away baseball fans will find that this is the ideal
hotel in St.
Louis, Missouri to spend their vacation.
