Not sure about the rest of the guys, but I do tend to be a bit picky for ticky-tacky details (always have been, even as a kid... I drove my mother crazy when I was little... holy moly.. LOL)
Anyway... if you are welcoming criticism on the parks... as far as Yankee Stadium - IF .. .and that's a verrrry big IF ... IF you ever wanted down the road to tweak it up a bit further - a few things come to mind that would totally completely complete the model:
Of significance:
1.) the flagpole in center field - right behind the monuments. Mickey Mantle hit that flag pole more than a few times in his career - and not sure if it's urban legend or not, but it's said he hit the flag pole twice in the same game hitting from both sides of the plate.
1a.) - there was also a structure in dead center field to the right of the monuments - I believe a set of loud speakers on a pole - that was in play (EVERYTHING in center field - the monuments, flag pole, and this thing, were all in play in those days) ... (not sure if this was added before or after 1952)
2.) - the big scoreboard in right field was supported by eight A-frame support beams (it would have toppled into the bleachers otherwise - lol) - they were a visible part of the look of the bleachers
Of lesser importance: (and off the top of my head, not sure when these were added relative to 1952)
- auxiliary electric scoreboards at each 'end' of the bleachers on the wall at field level
- football press box at the very end of the front of the upper deck in right field - gave an interesting camera angle for Giants games because it was not at the 50 yard line but skewed more toward the north end zone)
Anyway - I'm not requesting another re-do ... just am throwing these out there to you in the event that, at some point, you are between projects and felt compelled to look at The Cathedral one more time...

Appreciate the info. I'll see what I can do. I don't think the pictures I pulled my model from included that huge scoreboard with the supports as it doesn't look the same as in my model
