Our neighborhood
is overflowing with many attractions. Below is
a list of our favorites. |
| |
| City of Palms Park |
| |
This is one of
the finest parks and as the name would indicate,
there are numerous palm trees surrounding the
park. They line the outfield fence making for
a very attractive backdrop. The stadium features
a partially covered grandstand where 2/3 of the
seats have a roof overhead. The main concourse
area is located under the seating and has both
parts that are covered and uncovered. The concourse
features numerous concession stands as well as
a nice gift shop. For a Red Sox fan, this is the
place to be in March. Just a really nice park
to take in a spring training game. |
