@livefrom201 they did not "tear" down Yankee Stadium twice...they remodeled it during the 73-74 seasons.. But the structure remained.
-
@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME Shea was built by the same people who built Dodger Stadium...Just Dodger Stadium was better maintained.. They were pretty similar
-
how?
-
@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME Yeah, Dodger Stadium was '62 and Shea in '64... Both Citi Field and New Yankee Stadium opened in '09.
-
The Dodgers Stadium is older than Shea, and it's still there.
And i never knew they tore down Yankee Stadium :P
-
I didn't learn anything from this.
-
I've actually read that Shea's original design was to be fully enclosed, with a brick facade and a dome not enclosing and adding the dome after it being built, which is stated in this video. It would've been the first domed baseball field.
-
@RAMSASS That's what he said... The Dodgers actually wanted the exact spot where the Nets are building their new arena in Brooklyn. The Dodgers wanted that spot in Brooklyn because of the same reasons the Nets are moving there, it's centrally located with mass transit and all but Robert Moses refused to give it to them.

@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME Um, because Shea was a dump... Look, they tore down Yankee Stadium twice and there's a TON more history there!!!

My home away from home. My Daughter caught a foul ball off the bat of Craig Biggio there, and my sons 1st game, he got a foul ball off of Steve Finley. 35 years of going to Shea and more than 300 games I have never caught a foul ball. I was at a game last week, and I was telling my Father-in-law that I still get the same feeling, when I walk through Gate B and toward the field and see the sea of Orange seats and the green grass. I love it. LETS GO METS!!!! I Love NY and Shea Stadium!!!
