I noticed that that a contributor uses the phrase "PNC Park also introduced unique features, such as the use of limestone in the building's facade" in describing the architecture. Coors Field, built in 1995, opened six years before PNC Park, incorporated limestone in the building's brick facade.

I've noticed that the majority (if not all) of the pictures of PNC Park are several years old. Since then, the center field scoreboard has been modified, and a scoreboard has been placed circling the entire baseline under the luxury boxes. Since this is a rather large visual change, I think new pictures should be added to the article. At least, the first picture of the stadium should be replaced with a more up-to-date picture reflecting the new layout. In addition, those changes are not mentioned in the
Alterations section.

The article says the stadium was designed by HOK Sport but the information box lists the architect as Populous, which is apparently the new name for HOK Sport. Should the inof box be changed to HOK Sport as this was the name the company used when the stadium was designed? Wkharrisjr ( talk) 17:00, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
Editor [ Kitch] added a description of the location of the three statues outside of the park, but this was removed as "unsourced". Seem like this is information that should be included in the article, so how can we source it? Wkharrisjr ( talk) 15:20, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
At the Left Field entrance, there is a permanent exhibit honoring the Homestead Grays and Pittsburgh Crawfords of the Negro Leagues. It's no small thing: there are four life-size bronze statues, interactive exhibits, and even a small movie theater. How come there's no mention of it in a featured article?

This older (2008) FA promotion has accreted some uncited text, as well as some other issues. More specific concerns below:
And there's likely others; I don't have time to give a full review here. This article has good bones, but to keep FA status some work needs done. Hog Farm Talk 05:20, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
The ballpark logo in the infobox hasn't been used in several years. The current version is just PNC PARK in the same font as the PNC financial services company, but I can't find an .svg version of it, only a raster graphics version (jpg or png).
