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.

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!
