I Take Back What I Said About The New Yankee Stadium

One month ago, I questioned the "look" of the new Yankee Stadium. At that time, my words were "it’s starting to look more like a mausoleum than a ballpark."

Boy, was I wrong.

Last night was the first time that I've seen the construction site in person since last season. To be honest, when I came off the Eddie Grant Highway and made a right onto Jerome...and then I saw "it"...I thought to myself "Wow! It's majestic!" It truly hit me like a ton of bricks. It was a "That's no moon, it's a space station!" type moment. Very impressive. Jaw dropping when it enters your gaze.

I snapped a few pictures once I was on foot. The better ones follow below.

Click on them to enlarge. The first two are the new digs. The last one is a shot of the current Stadium and some of the work they're doing next to it.
