Forbes Field Forever
Preserving memories of a classic baseball park.

In 1970, the Pittsburgh Pirates left Forbes Field in the Oakland neighborhood for Three Rivers Stadium, built along city's downtown waterfront across from the Golden Triangle. Nearly thirty years later, ground was broken for a "turn-back-the-clock" baseball field, located north of Three Rivers Stadium. Since April 2001, PNC Park has been the new home of the Pirates. Our website pays tribute to an original classic ballpark, Forbes Field. We hope your enjoy your visit. To share your comments, please click here.
