nErD aLeRt!

both the yankees' and the mets' new stadiums open today. nytimes architecture critic, nicolai ouroussoff reviews them:

What’s more, each stadium subtly reflects the character of the franchises that built them. Yankee Stadium is the kind of stoic, self-conscious monument to history that befits the most successful franchise in American sports. The new home of the Mets, meanwhile, is scrappier and more lighthearted. It plays with history fast and loose, as if it were just another form of entertainment. (nytimes)
