"Five-Star Stadium"

This has to be by FAR the nicest stadium I have seen for any sport, let alone baseball. As the first privately funded stadium since the 1960s, AT&T Park (aka Giant Stadium) is home to ball games and concerts alike.

The giant TV screens make the event viable whether you are inside or out - yes, the stadium has a huge indoor area. Forget the dirty walkways outside the bleachers - the interior of this stadium is more hotel lobby than large-scale sporting event. The large glass windows allow you to view the event from the comfort of one of the many bars or restaurants - which serve greasy stadium food, gourmet pizza, and healthy Mediterranean wraps alike. You are more likely to see microbrews than Bud Light, and the restrooms are as luxurious as the rest of the stadium.

What is the biggest downfall? You guessed it - the concessions are even more overpriced than normal stadiums. Despite the astronomical price tags, this is an attraction worth seeing at least once in your life if you are a baseball fan or concert-goer.
Pros
  • Great stadium food
  • Indoor/outdoor variety
  • Public transportation
Cons
  • Prices
  • Parking
  • Traffic

"Construction work and lots of shade"

Nelson Rising Lane in San Francisco, CA is a neighboring street to Gene Friend Way, located one block apart. Like Gene Friend Way, it is also situated between 4th Street (on its west end) and 3rd Street (on its east end), although Nelson Rising Lane stretches on for a small fraction of a block past 4th Street and onto a gated dead end construction area. The street is a rather dull place to be to tell you the truth, there's a lot of construction going on across from some fairly tall commercial buildings that block out the sun so the area is mostly in the shade a lot.

"A street for pedestrians only"

Gene Friend Way in San Francisco, CA is a tiny street (approximately from one half to a block long) ranging from 4th Street on the west side and over to 3rd Street on the east side. Gene Friend Way is really a pathway for pedestrians and bicyclers as opposed to a regular street that is designated for vehicles and such. It's a simple fresh-painted pathway situated within a very wide open space that is surrounded by small commercial buildings, trees, and parking lots.
