Great American Ball Park
The Great American Ball Park is near the banks of the Ohio River. It is the home of the Cincinnati Reds. It was opened in 2003 and replaced the Cinergy Field (previously Riverfront Stadium). The Great American Ball Park name comes from the Great American Insurance Group. Although it is the name of the insurance group who purchased the naming rights, it is very patriotic sounds and is a great representation of the Cincinnati community. The old address of the ball park was 100 Main Street, Cincinnati, Ohio. The Great American Ball Park location was then changed to the corner of Second Street and Joe Nuxhall Way in downtown Cincinnati at 100 Joe Nuxhall Way, Cincinnati, OH 45202-4109. This was in memory of the former Cincinnati Reds pitcher Joe Nuxhall. Let Mike Castrucci Ford know what you love about the Great American Ball Park!
