    Not at Nationals Park.

    The ironic thing is that they ruined a perfectly good public space for kids to play baseball with a piece of public art. The only way to make it more ironic would be for the statues to be standing playing baseball on their hand held games or phones. :(

    It needs a Stay Off the Grass sign.

    That space doesn’t seem big enough for a baseball field. It’s only about 50 ft. wide, and maybe 60-70 ft. long, accounting for the angle of the north border. If anyone hit baseballs there, they would smash into a lot of the parked or moving cars on Virginia Ave. They could also hit foul balls back into the Fed building unless someone added a metal cage. I doubt the Fed or their friends would let that happen.

    [For those who don’t know, it’s Edward J. Kelly Park, directly behind the Federal Reserve building. I thought it was part of the Fed but I think it might be administered by the National Park Service. There are other sculptures in the park. Not a lot of info online. According to the Wall Street Journal, NPS owns the tennis court there, but the Fed administers it. At least they did in 2012.]

    Oh, yeah. Those would still be nice and white, I’m sure.

    It has been a while since this thread has been used.
    I passed this today and enjoyed the spherical center and mirror.

    It is in a grassy area on Virginia Ave NW between 20th and 21st St NW. There is a tennis court nearby for a federal building that used be known as Edward J. Kelly Park.
    Also, I just noticed that PotomacCyclist posted this picture in this thread in February 2015.
