Parkview Field

Parkview Field was funded and constructed via a public-private partnership between the team — now renamed the Fort Wayne TinCaps — and the City of Fort Wayne. The move downtown brought not only a new identity for the team, but also an entirely new experience that involved the entire community of Fort Wayne, Allen County, Northeast Indiana and beyond. The team held a job fair before the 2009 season and more than 2,500 people showed up to apply for a position with the club. The franchise expanded from 35 game-day employees to more than 400, while the least expensive ticket price dropped from $6.50 to $5.00. The new ballpark didn’t just signal that there was a new sporting venue in Fort Wayne, but that a one-of-a-kind facility was becoming a staple of a revitalized downtown.
