I absolutely agree. Every single "retro" stadium that came out after Camden was pretty much awful. It's nice to see HOK catch up to the European sprots architecture going on, plenty of which is very impressive. Obviously the old ballparks need to be saved (I miss Yankee Stadium already), but if you're building a new one, make it innovative and modern, not more of the usually inaccurate and ugly "retro" look.
