The actual train station is located just two blocks away from the field. The shed that the stadium was converted from was over a century old. The abandoned train shed is what is on the exterior of the first base side of the park. Many major league as well as minor league parks have been built out of existing buildings, but Montgomery's is said to be one of the nicer ones in the minor leagues. ==Features== The stadium offers 20 luxury suites. Six of the suites are built into the old train terminal along the first-base line and the remaining 14 extend along the third base line.〔 Montgomery Riverwalk Stadium offers picnic areas along the third-base line and in left-center field.〔 The picnic area in left-center field can accommodate up to 4,000 fans.
