Yankees to announce $800 million ballpark
NEW YORK (AP) -- The New York Yankees will announce detailed plans Wednesday for a new $800 million ballpark, which would be built adjacent to the current Yankee Stadium and could be ready by the 2009 season.
The team has spent years planning the new stadium, which will have a capacity of at least 50,800 -- approximately 6,000 seats fewer than the current ballpark -- but could be expanded to about 54,000. It would be constructed in Macombs Dam Park, to the north of the current stadium, and financed by the team.
Yankee Stadium, which opened in 1923, is the third-oldest park in use in the major leagues, younger only than Boston's Fenway Park (1912) and Chicago's Wrigley Field (1914). Yankee Stadium was renovated extensively in 1974-75, but the team has long desired a modern ballpark with more luxury suites and wider concourses.
The stadium plan calls for the new ballpark to resemble the original Yankee Stadium in many of its details, and the dimensions of the playing field would be identical to the current ballpark. It would have 50-60 suites, up from 18 in the current stadium.
Yankees owner George Steinbrenner, New York Gov. George Pataki and New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg planned to attend a Wednesday news conference announcing the stadium, Steinbrenner spokesman Howard Rubenstein said. The Yankees hope to start construction in 2006 and move into the new ballpark in 2009, an ambitious timetable that given the delays that frequently occur in construction in New York.
Approval from the state Legislature and the City Council is necessary. The state would contribute about $70 million to increase parking from 7,000 spaces to 11,000, and the city would replace the lost parkland as part of the deal. A new commuter train station and expanded ferry terminal also is part of the plan.
Just last weekend, the city and the Mets announced plans for a new $600 million ballpark next to Shea Stadium. That facility would be used for the 2012 Olympics the International Olympic Committee votes July 6 to award the event to New York.
That plan was drawn up after last week's collapse of the proposal to build a retractable-roof stadium in Manhattan for the NFL's Jets and the Olympics.
The Yankees and New York City's government agreed several weeks ago to a memorandum of understanding for the new Bronx ballpark. The team will pay for the stadium on its own, and the cost of paying off the bonds used to raise the money will be deducted from the Yankees' locally generated revenue. That will lower the Yankees' revenue sharing payments to the commissioner's office.
doesnt anyone think that the yankees should use there money on something better than a new ballpark?Comment

I don't know how to feel about a 'new' Yankee Stadium. That place is a shrine. But, I can understand the need for more luxury boxes and parking. I understand they may leave the field intact as a museum.Talk Classic Rock - The Official Message Board For Classic Rock -- Now on XenForo!Comment

The Yankees are back at .500 (32-32). They have won the first two games of the series vs. the Pirates.
I'm very impressed with the Pirates infield. They turn doubleplays just as good as anyone. Very solid up the middle. The 3rd baseman (can't recall his name right now) is no slouch either.Talk Classic Rock - The Official Message Board For Classic Rock -- Now on XenForo!Comment

The Yanks get a gift call on what should have been the 4th double play of the game in the 9th, what should have ended the game....
But of course, the call goes against the Buccos...
And of course, eventually, it bites them in the ass....
As Mesa absolutely GROOVES one to Giambi...
I'll be one happy guy when they trade that has-been closer....
Juice or no juice, Giambi tatered that ball, deep in the upper deck....Eat Us And Smile - The Originals
