Yes, a small portion of the original Point Bridge is visible in No.2 and
Forbes Field is the last one. Mazeroski's Wall is visible. BTW, Mazeroski's
Wall (the section where he hit the home run out of the park to win the 1960
World Series) is now in the PNC Park complex on North Side. A portion of
the brick wall still remains in Oakland (and is labeled "Mazeroski's Wall),
however, it is not the exact area where the 1960 home run was hit but is
part of that section of the wall.
