Populous, who is the leading architect for professional ballparks, had a guideline that they needed at least 12.5 acres for a new ballpark, but the site for the future Target field was less than eight acres with a railroad line and a major highway next to it.

Alpha Video Sports was awarded the contract to integrate the control room that powers the ballpark’s LED, LCD, and IPTV signage in July 2011 and, since then, has worked to transform Marlins Park into a high-tech entertainment experience.
