Payne Park

Payne Park was host to many of Major League Baseball's most renowned figures from 1924, when the reigning champion of New York Giants of the National League opened spring training, until 1988, when the Chicago White Sox of the American League played their last spring game. The stadium was torn down in 1990.

 

 

 

Payne Park has now been completely revamped, and is a spacious and inviting public park for so many venues that include, tennis, skateboarding, running and walking trails, an amphitheater and much more. 85 years later, Calvin and Martha Payne would be proud.
