It was built in 1935 as a Works Progress Administration project, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
As a result, a number of houses that surround the park have good views of games.
The park had major renovations prior to the 1999 season, with a new grandstand behind the plate and along the first-base side as well as “open-air suites” (railed-in areas with picnic tables) farther down on the first-base line.
The park has received a new press box and VIP towers, renovated home clubhouse, new visiting clubhouse, a jumbotron, 18 additional outdoor suites, new concession stand, upgraded souvenirs, additional general admission seating, upgraded padded club seating, renovated ticket offices, and several additional parking lots.
Additional renovations since the 2015 season have included a picnic pavilion, three-tiered party deck in left field, and walk-in retail store.
