Yankee Stadium
The New York Yankees are one of baseball’s most successful and polarizing franchises. Since their inception in 1901 the Yankees have claimed 27 World Series titles, 40 AL Pennants, and over 20 Hall of Famers! The team has settled into their new Yankee Stadium in 2009, the same year as their last World Series win. Many of baseball’s greats have called the Bronx home including Lou Gehrig, Babe Ruth, and Derek Jeter.
Yankee Stadium:
New Yankee Stadium cost a total of $1.5 billion dollars to build and is the most expensive baseball stadium in the world. With higher costs come finer qualities, including an Indiana limestone exterior, the Great Hall, and Monument Park. The Great Hall itself houses multiple banners representing Yankees greats through the franchise’s history. The Monument Park is another area devoted to recognizing the best to ever wear the pinstripes. The Monument Park near center field is lined with plaques and retired numbers to forever immortalize those considered legends within the franchise.
If you are looking for adventure on your trip Yankee Stadium tours are offered through the facilities. We can add this on to your travel package, giving you the opportunity to visit the NY Yankees Museum, Monument Park, and other facilities within the ballpark. This option is a must-have for those looking to get the most out of their Yankees experience.
What to do in New York?
One of most talked about aspects of New Yankee Stadium is the great deal of homeruns hit within the ballpark. The stadium actually had a historic 237 homeruns hit in the stadium’s inaugural 2009 season. Needless to say we recommend you bring your catcher’s glove when seated in the outfield, you just might take home a souvenir or two.
When traveling to the “Big Apple” there is countless sights to see during your visit. We always recommend that you visit Times Square during your visit, the heart of the city itself. You can also pay a visit to Broadway and see one of the many shows being run such as Wicked and The Book of Mormon.
When visiting the city it is essential you try some of the dining options at local supper clubs such as 54 Below, The Metropolitan Room, or The Duplex. For those looking for more traditional dining options there are countless options open to you, but be sure to visit Ninth Avenue in Hell’s Kitchen for a taste of some of New York’s finest cuisine.
