Alfredo Harp Helú Stadium (Mexico City)
The primary baseball stadium in Mexico, located in an economically disadvantaged area of Mexico City and nestled within the Formula One racetrack, aims to strike a balance amidst this contrast. While the stadium features a VIP level and a range of traditional upper and lower bowl seating, it also incorporates affordable seating options. The ultimate goal is to utilize it as a marketplace for local community members to sell their products, thereby reinforcing the local job market.
