By Design in Fort Wayne

City hires ballpark designer
HOK Sport's work includes Baltimore's Camden Yards

The Fort Wayne Redevelopment Commission on Monday approved a contract with a firm to design the $30 million ballpark that serves as the centerpiece to the Harrison Square development.

The commission approved a $1.7 million contract with HOK Sport, of Kansas City, Mo., to design and engineer the downtown baseball stadium. The international firm is responsible for designing many Major League Baseball ballparks, including Camden Yards in Baltimore, the first of baseball’s now-common retro parks.
