In 1934 construction was done on the left field wall and eventually became known as the Green Monster. The Green Monster is a 37 feet, 2 inches high wall that is 240 feet long, and has a 22 foot deep foundation.  The wall was built from 30,000 pounds of Yoncan Iron.  The Green Wall is currently the highest wall in professional baseball and is notorious for rejecting home runs on hits that would have cleared any other ballpark.  The green wall does have a history of allowing a lot more extra-base hits.
