Theme Day: Something That is About to Disappear Soon
This month's Theme Day mission was to photograph something that is about to disappear soon. I realized that "soon" is a very loose term so I chose Shea Stadium, home to the Major League Baseball team the New York Mets. Shea stadium will only be there for the next few years, as a newer stadium is being built in the parking lot, located directly to the left of the where the photograph was taken. It will be a sad day for baseball fans - but not for me :).Καλό Μήνα! - Good Month! :)

Shea Stadium is going to be demolished? Well, that'll make world news then! Gee!
Why not sad for you? Not a baseball fan? Lookign forward to the new one? I guess this space will become th new carpark?
Yes meg...even I have heard of Shea stadium...the home of the american's "world" series. LOL
personally I don't find baseball very entertaining and because Shea Stadium is so close to my parents house it causes soooo much traffic every time I am there - to be honest though I was cheering for them in the postseason, especially when I found out there would have been a parade had they won. alas, they let me down :(
Nice one, I hope the spare land will later be used for nature !
The San Diego Padres got a new one a few years back and now our football team wants a new one too. We didn't get a postseason parade here either.
The new stadiums are not as much fun as the old open-air ones. Let's hope that state-of-the-art building that replaces it is truly better.
I just hope you make a better job of it than we are dloing replacing Wembley Stadium - years late, now.
I bet the new stadium will look fabulous. Stadiums around the world are getting nicer, fancier and beautiful.
Nice choice! The world famous "Amazin' Mets" are getting a new home. Hopefully Queens (is this stadium in Queens? I've never been to New York, so I don't know where much of anything is or if Queens is a city unto itself or a neighborhood within NYC.)

this one looks fine to me, shame it has to go, but from your point of view i understand =)
All the years I lived in NYC, I don't think I ever made it to Shea Stadium. Yankee stadium, Ashe stadium, yes. But not the poor old Mets!
