One of the Gate 2 balconies that will be preserved.
The Daily News is reporting that the three balconies that adorned “Gate 2” of Yankee Stadium will be preserved and incorporated into the development of the new Heritage Park (h/t River Avenue Blues). The balconies dated back to the original construction of the Stadium
Groups like the Committee to Commemorate Old Yankee Stadium and the Save the Yankee Gate 2 Committee had rallied to preserve more of the structure, but ultimately failed. Even though the balconies were just a small portion of the original Yankee Stadium, this reversal by the Parks Department is at least a moral victory.
