Oriole Park at Camden Yards

Widely heralded as the first sports facility in 50 years that weaved itself into an existing urban fabric, one of the most identifiable features of the ballpark is the retention and renovation of the 1,032-foot long, eight-story B&O Warehouse as part of the park. As part of the Master Planning Team, WRT performed urban design services and is the Landscape Architect of Record for the Camden Yards Sports Complex. WRT's "rotated square" paving motif, a stylized baseball diamond, is employed both outside and inside the ballpark, and has been adapted into several logos and signage designs used at the complex.
