The Orignal House That Ruth Built (The Old Yankee Staduim)

On a rainy, Tuesday afternoon, I decided to see the last of the original Yankee Stadium being torn down. All Photo Taken By Kevin A. Richards Photography © 2010

With 12 days left before baseball season, it’s said that the bleachers had to be
taken down before the new season begins.

When I got there, the construction workers were securing the cables
to the bleachers and preparing to pull them from 3 forklifts. The cable pop the first time they tried and it took about an half and hour to set it up again. The second they tried it again and the bleacher second came tumbling down in less than 2 seconds. Check out the photos below.
