Fenway

Green Monster's home

Fenway is a neighborhood in Boston, Massachusetts, named for the surrounding fens (marshland).

The name is most associated with Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox since 1912 and the oldest active Major League Baseball stadium: We caught a game at Fenway.

The park's distinctive features include the Green Monster, its towering left-field wall.
