Overview

Given its location just yards behind the left field wall of Nationals Park, West Half's airy, vibrant façade will be seen by more than 50 million viewers every baseball season. West Half's gradually rising exterior echoes the Stadium's existing gradient, creating a harmonious transition between the building, the stadium, and the surrounding Capitol Riverfront neighborhood.
