What's with that series of Yankee logos (visible in the 13th and 14th pics from the top especially)? Is the strip going to stay with the logos like that, or is it like a banner scoreboard? Looks kinda cool.
Very cool. I'm still opposed to the new stadium (especially after watching that new movie that came out about Y.S, THE CATHEDRAL OF BASEBALL i think it's called), but the new one really does look nice.
The manual scoreboards built into the walls will be covered with a chicken wire or chainlink type fence, or maybe plexiglass, as they do at many other ballparks.
My folks live in Flushing so I frequently take the 7 into Manhattan (especially when I'm having a few adult beverages while there), and I also drive by the new place in Flushing when driving down Northern Blvd. Now I know I'm a Yankees fan so my comments might not appear too objective, but I must say that the new park in Queens looks rather ugly, especially when you view it from Northern Blvd. I bet the view from inside the park will look nice, but outside? Well....it's rather "yuk" to me.
The new Yankee Stadium blows it away as far as looks go!
Thanks for all the pix.
ReplyDeleteNo problem.

ReplyDeleteI had no clue there were gonna be scoreboards right there where the OF wall would be... hopefully not many balls get stuck in it...

ReplyDeleteLooks greaT.
ReplyDeletethe OF wall scoreboard is great - reminiscent of the old Stadium...
ReplyDeleteMan, you were quick to put these up.
ReplyDeleteI told you I'd post them as soon as I found some. I was actually about to email you to make sure you knew.
ReplyDeleteTruly great shots!
