The idea was to keep the Mariners in Seattle by giving the team a new stadium to replace the crumbling Kingdome. Construction on Safeco field began with a groundbreaking featuring a then-member of the Seattle Mariners, Ken Griffey Jr. on March 8, 1997. The Seattle insurance company Safeco purchased the naming rights, giving the baseball stadium its current name, Safeco Field. The first game to be played in Safeco Field by the Seattle Mariners was against the San Diego Padres on July 15, 1999.

A location just south of the site of the original Kingdome was selected for the new Safeco Field. Safeco has been in Seattle since 1923, so this was an appropriate company to take the naming rights of this landmark facility, which was host to many major events like the All-Star game, in 2001, and the dramatic public retirement one of the most beloved players on the team, Edgar Martinez, who ended his long career with the Mariners with much sentimental reluctance in October, 2004.

Much to the delight of local fans, the Seattle Mariners will be around at least until 2019, when the 20 year lease the Mariners signed to stay at Safeco Field will end.
