Petco Ballpark 'Park at the Park'
An extension of San Diego Padres’ Petco Park on baseball game days, but a park for the surrounding neighborhood at all other times, “Park at the Park” involved an extensive programming study to link the park to a major entertainment venue successfully. The idea was a rich outdoor experience, day or night, game or no game. The tee ball field and playground provide a playful environment for families. In addition, the park was envisioned as another link in the growing ring of open spaces interspersed throughout downtown.
