All have disappeared from the built environment with the exception of Fenway Park in Boston, Wrigley Field in Chicago, and a portion of Cleveland's own League Park, whose former ticket office is now home to the Baseball Heritage Museum. Through Woodman's use of his architectural background and Computer Aided Design (CAD) software, the exhibit will be able to show visitors what these ballparks looked like when they opened over 100 years ago.</span></font></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1478437204782_15972"><font face="Arial, sans-serif" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1478437204782_15973" size="3"><span style="font-weight: normal;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1478437204782_15974"><br id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1478437204782_15975"></span></font></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1478437204782_15976"><font face="Arial, sans-serif" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1478437204782_15977" size="3"><span style="font-weight: normal;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1478437204782_15978">Woodman will make two presentations on the history and process behind the exhibit at the opening on December 3.
