They ought to do with Yankee Stadium I what they did with Commiskey Park I: home plate should remain, along with the batter’s box, and be kept as a shrine. Even though the old Commiskey is now a parking lot, you can stand up on the concourse of new Commiskey and look down on old Commiskey’s batter’s box. It’s pretty cool.
Supposedly the site will feature a forest of trees in the shape of the old grandstand, and *will* feature a plaque where home plate existed ... however, the exact point of home plate had changed during the 1976 remodeling, and again (I think) in the mid 80's ... so there are three potential "points" where home plate once existed, wonder which one they'll use for the plaque?
