Lack of Yankee Funds for South Bronx
WNYC Radio
Is it the lawyer's fault? The accountant's? How 'bout Bronx politicos? At least the Yankees appear to be holding up their end of the bargain.
The new Yankee Stadium in the Bronx is more than halfway finished. It's expected to be ready on schedule by opening day of 2009.
But, the surrounding neighborhood isn't seeing all the benefits that were supposed to come, even while residents are contending with construction noise.
WNYC’s Matthew Schuerman reports.
NoLandGrab: Why are we not surprised that the new stadium will be finished three years before the "replacement" parks will be ready?
