Minnesota Twins Version of Green Monster
Target Field will soon get its own version of Fenway Park’s famous Green Monster as the Minnesota Twins unveiled plans for a “living wall” system at the downtown Minneapolis ballpark.
The Plug and Play by Green Living Technologies International, (GLTI) and will be installed by GLTI National ProStaff manager Boston-based CityScapes.
Matt Hoy, the Twins’ senior vice president of operations, said the decision to go with the juniper plants came after consulting with players and coaches, and after sign-off from Major League Baseball.
“The Minnesota Twins are excited about plans to install one of the world’s largest living walls at Target Field,” said team President and CEO Dave St. Peter, who added that there is nothing else like it in Major League Baseball.
The GLTI family of living walls are the only products in the global market that are guaranteed for life and are a CLASS A Fire Rating!
Not Our First MLB Rennovation..
It’s not our first outfield renovation! When an MLB team has to depend on retaining the integrity of the playing field they need to know there is no chance of failure! In 2009 it was the 20,000 sf green living roof for the NY Mets. The green living roof system was an easy choice. Virtually indestructible, tailored to specific stormwater retention needs, it can be cut and account for contours in the roof. Its the ONLY green roof product in the world that comes with a LIFETIME WARRANTY!
Miami Marlins Bring the Outfield In!
2015 GLTI re-engineered the Miami Marlins outfield by bringing the wall in while engineering a various slope green living roof. Again, failure was not an option, GLTI performed the task in less than two weeks before opening day!
