Dickey-Stephens Park, Little Rock, Arkansas (August, 2011)

 
The ballpark is located in a redevelopment area not too far from the 18,000 seat Alltel Arena (built in 1999) in North Little Rock.  There's a historic district, called the Argenta District, with several bars and restaurants just a block or two from the stadium. 

It's just north of the Arkansas River from downtown Little Rock and there are several bridges connecting the two as well as a historic trolley system.

This is the front of the park with a large but rather empty plaza area.  Some nice decorations, statues, plantings, something, would have made this area a little less stark.  Either way the clock tower and the red brick exterior are attractive.
