Geocache Description:


Welcome to the new Yankee Stadium!

Have a walk around or a seat in the plaza and take in the work and detail that went into its construction. The exterior was made from 11,000 pieces of Indiana limestone, along with granite and pre-cast concrete. The stadium was designed to closely mirror the exterior of the original Yankee Stadium when it first opened in 1923 with the building's name V-cut and gold-leaf lettered above each gate.

If you're here for a game, be sure to take in all the stadium has to offer as there is plenty to see and do. You may not notice, but the field dimensions for the outfield fences have the same distance markers as the original facility prior to closing. Overall, the fences measure 318 feet to left field, 399 feet to left-center field, 408 feet to center field, 385 feet to right-center field, and 314 to right field.

Whether or not you're a Yankees fan, you have to admit that the Bronx Bombers always draw a crowd. So if you're from the area or visiting from out of town, enjoy the experience and the game.

Go Yanks!

Cache only contains a log so be sure to bring a pen/pencil.

***In order to find the cache, don't go playing in the middle of 161st street, use the Macombs Dam Bridge overpass.***
