ST. LOUIS, March 27, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Discover the newest dining and entertainment district in the Missouri area – St. Louis Ballpark Village – scheduled to open on March 27, just four days before the Cardinals Home Opener. Located adjacent to Busch Stadium, this newly created sports anchored entertainment district is a one-of-a-kind venue for gathering with friends over food and drinks while watching popular sporting events.
