Reno Aces Ballpark

The Reno Aces Ballpark is located on the corner of Evans and 2nd Street. The stadium is built on an assembly of land that used to include a run-down weekly motel, a weeded lot, and Fire Station #1. The Reno Aces Ballpark is considered a catalyst redevelopment project, because it is spurring other developments/redevelopment in the area, and was both directly/indirectly responsible for the leveling of three weekly motels in this area, greatly improving the neighborhood.

The stadium is home to the Reno Aces, a triple-A baseball team. For those not quite in the know, Triple-A is one level below major league baseball.

The Reno Aces is northern Nevada’s first-ever Triple-A baseball team. The Aces franchise was purchased by SK Baseball, led by managing partner Stuart Katzoff, in 2007. Stadium construction began not long after that.

The Reno Aces Ballpark features all the amenities you would expect in a major league park, just on a smaller scale. Features include luxury suites, restaurants, food, several beer gardens, picnic table seating, a grassy birm to stretch out on and relax/watch a great game, and a kids play area complete with bouncy castle and jungle gyms. There are giveaways and audience-participatory fun at every game, and it's a great way to spend the afternoon downtown. There is no parking at the Reno Aces Ballpark itself, but look for the parking map icon in my sidebar to the right of this content. See pictures below. Click on any thumbnail to enlarge.
