Safeco Field, Seattle
Home of the Seattle Mariners baseball club, the Safeco field has a retractable roof, which was open on the day of this photo. Just to the north is Qwest Field, a football stadium home to the Seattle Seahawks and Seattle Sounders.
The two fields were built to replace the Kingdome, which was demolished in the world’s largest implosion of a single concrete structure on March 26th, 2000.
Thanks: Braz & many others




They must be preparing for the Google Sightseeing future — Qwest Field now also has Large Type on its roof:

Its very grey
now if it could only zoom in to see Ichiro!
If you browse to the stadium using GoogleEarth you can see a “down” on one of the goal lines in front of full house. (Apologies for the British commentary on US football).
And it’s a Placemark: touchdown / Google Earth!
