The Great American Ball Park has been home to the Cincinnati Reds baseball team since 2003. Prior to that the team played in Riverfront Stadium which they shared with the Bengals.

Today the ball park is located along the Ohio River and opens out to give a view of Kentucky on the other side. The main entrance to the park is on Crosley Terrace. This area has statues commemorating some of the great former players such as Joe Nuxhall and Frank Robinson.

The park also plays home to the Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame which has it's own building where one can buy souvenirs and learn more about the storied history of the team.

The ball park has one of the largest scoreboards in an MLB stadium. This is located above the stands in left field where it blocks the view of US Bank Arena next door.

The stadium even has it's own brew pub, the Machine Room, located near the Reds bullpen.
