As I was poking around Halifax I came across Wanderer Grounds. The property was first used by an amateur athletic group from the 1800s through World War II, at which point the city took possession of it. It's been used for soccer, rugby, and baseball, and currently a new soccer field is being built there for a Canadian Premier League team. But... what if the grounds had actually been built as a baseball stadium? The Grounds are relatively close to a high density area, so I decided to give it a bit of a Fenway/Wrigley feel, including a 24 foot fence in right field. I took a small, neighborhood park's field layout as the inspiration for the field.

The stadium plays pretty pitcher friendly (again with the advantages of being close to the ocean and in Canada. Unlike everything else I've done in Canada, it's more friendly (barely) to right handed power hitters.
