The Green Monster. Fenway Park's 37-foot left field wall first came into existence as a 25-foot wood fence. Following two fires that leveled the ballpark, it was reconstructed in 1934 out of tin over railroad ties and the height was adjusted to 37-feet. In 1936, a 23-foot net was added above the wall. When, in 1976, the wall was rebuilt again, it was constructed from hard plastic. For years, it was simply referred to as "The Wall," but sometime after 1947 when advertising was removed and it was painted green it came to be known as the Green Monster. The net remained in play until 2003 when the "Monster Seats" were created atop the wall. This seating has since been expanded toward center field with the "Nation's Nest."
