Default If they built a old ballpark again?

So I was thinking today. If a mlb team decided to rebuild a all time classic stadium from the 1920s-60s what stadium would you like to see be built again?

Me personally I think the polo grounds would be pretty cool with that huge centerfield.

I have no idea which would make most sense, but I'd pick Tiger Stadium. I loved that place.

Crosley Field, because my father grew up a Reds fan and going to games there. He always told me stories about games he went to.

I, too would choose Crosley.

But I think the one with the most mass-appeal (if someone were really to do it) would be Ebbets.

Braves field in Boston. I heard that a small part of it is still there.

"After the Braves moved to Milwaukee just prior to the 1953 season, the stadium was sold to Boston University. The old ballpark was used
as-is until 1955, when the university reconfigured the stands, demolishing all but the pavilion grandstand along the right field line, which was
retained as the core of a football, soccer, field hockey and track-and-field stadium. The stadium was initially called Boston University Field and
was later renamed Nickerson Field. Aside from the pavilion, parts of the ballpark retained included Gaffney's original outer wall; and the ticket
office, which was converted to the university police station. The rest of the stadium property was replaced by dormitories. Of the various
demolished Jewel Box ballparks, Braves Field probably has the largest proportion of visible remnants still standing."

Thank you for the information. I will try to check it out now that it's above 50 in Boston.
