The New York Mets Hall of Fame was created in order to recognize the careers of former New York Mets players, managers, broadcasters and executives. There are presently 30 members.[1][2] Originally located in the Diamond Club at Shea Stadium, the inductees were honored with plaques in the Mets Hall of Fame and Museum at Citi Field, which opened in April 2010.[3][4] (In Citi Field's first season, 2009, the space was part of the Mets Team Store.) Following the 2023 season, the Hall of Fame was moved to the Field Level of the Jackie Robinson Rotunda while the Museum was closed to expand the Team Store. The Museum reopened in a smaller space near the Bullpen Gate in 2024.[5]
