What it's known for
Fenway’s left-field wall, the Green Monster, is the most famous feature in baseball: a towering green wall, with an old-style manual scoreboard at its base, that turns routine fly balls into doubles and long singles. Seats were added on top of it in 2003 and are some of the hardest tickets in the park.
Fenway is full of odd angles because it was built to fit the streets around it. Look for the Pesky Pole down the right-field line, and for the single red seat in the right-field bleachers that marks the longest home run ever hit inside the park, by Ted Williams in 1946.
Getting there
Take the MBTA Green Line to Kenmore or Fenway station and walk a few minutes; driving and parking near Fenway on game days is expensive and slow. The streets around the park, especially Lansdowne and Jersey Streets, fill up hours before first pitch.
Tips for your visit
- Some older grandstand seats have obstructed views because of support poles. Check the seat view before you buy if that matters to you.
- Seats in the old sections are narrow and face second base rather than home plate; the bleachers are cheaper and have a great view of the Monster.
- Fenway offers ballpark tours on most days, including some game days, if you want to see the park up close.
