Shea Stadium, Queens, NY (September, 2006)

 
The best way to get to Shea is via the subway.  $2 from anywhere and an easy ride.  The number 7 line (purple) stops right at the stadium.  This is your view as you leave the platform and head across to the stadium.

Shea is a typical municipal-style stadium, most of which are either meeting a wreaking ball or are scheduled to.  Shea will be torn down soon as play will begin in the new park, Citi Field, in 2009.

For more on the stadium you can view these two PDF documents: History of Shea and also
Shea-Citi Comparison

(I made the PDFs because I knew that the info on Shea wouldn't always be available on the Mets site after the stadium was gone.)
