I started going around to all the older ballparks a few years ago, just to be able to see them before they disappear forever. Was able to catch the last home stands at Tiger Stadium & Candlestick Park, and had already seen a few games at the old Comiskey. After the remaining teens / 20's parks existing a few years ago, the 'Stick was the next-oldest park, having been built in '58 or '59, I believe.

Hate to see these old ballparks disappear!

Correction - 1958 was groundbreaking for Candlestick, it opened in 1960.

"I started going around to all the older ballparks a few years ago ..."

I did that as well. I'm glad I went to Wrigley; it's still a gem. Old Comiskey was a dump, in a bad area. I went to an afternoon game at Candlestick, which had zero charm in my view and was in a surprisingly sketchy neighborhood. I also enjoyed County Stadium in Milwaukee and, of the 60's/70's era stadiums, the old San Diego park. The Kingdome was the worst venue for baseball I visited; I cheered its demolition. Among the newer ballparks, I liked Camden Yards and Turner Field - although Turner Field is also in a bad area with no convenient public transportation.
