Inside Minute Maid Stadium, Houston, TX
Another view.
From the outside, downtown Houston.Our local USG rep took us to an Astros game this week. They won 8-7 against the Milwaukee Brewers. Minute Maid Stadium is right near downtown, Houston. Opened in 2000, it has natural grass and a retractable roof.
When the home team hits a home run, a 50,000 pound replica train runs 800 feet across the low roof rail on the west side of the ballpark. This ties in to the ballpark's location adjacent to Union Station, the city's former train station, dating back to 1911.
