Its as if a grandma has been resurrected from the past in the form of a youngster. The pillars within the stadium also speak of the antique similarity of the older stadium. These features add classic elegance to the stadium, which couldn’t have been captured in a better way. It reassures all New Yorkers that the Yankee organization is still in touch with its imperative history, a history that has given the Yankees its current reputation. The beauty of this colossal stadium within such an urban neighborhood speaks of art itself. With such a poverty stricken area surrounding it and the 4 train running directly next it, the Yankee Stadium looks like a sore thumb amongst a collection of index fingers. Every aspect about the stadium is so striking that it is impossible for such a sports facility to not be considered a perfect example of NY art, most importantly because of the pride that lies behind these walls and a pride that is embedded in the Yankee logo on the baseball cap of every fan that enters these doors.
