Welcome to the page for the Demolition of Old Yankee Stadium and the building of the New Park and Fields.

Facts about the demolition:

• The recycled concrete was sent to two recycling facilities (85-90% was sent to Evergreen Recycling in Flushing NY and the other 10% was sent to A.R.J.R. trucking recycling in Yonkers). All the recyclable Metals went to SIMMS Metal Management in the Bronx. (Credit: DEMCO)

Here are some updated photos of the new park, McCombs Dam Park, the site of Old Yankee Stadium. (Credit: Tom Noonan and Mike Hagan)
