Coors Field
Home of the Colorado Rockies, where a row of purple seats in the upper deck sits exactly one mile above sea level.
Opened in 1995, Coors Field is the home ballpark of the Colorado Rockies of Major League Baseball. Its red brick exterior fits well with the historic LoDo neighborhood. The ring of purple seats in Row 20 of the upper deck marks an elevation of 5,280 feet (one mile). Because the air is thin, the park is known as the easiest place in the country to hit home runs. A rooftop bar above the outfield seats lets you watch the game while enjoying views of the Rocky Mountain sunset. The season runs from April to September, and stadium tours are offered on non-game days. The ballpark is about a 10-minute walk northeast of Union Station.
