Korakuen Stadium (後樂園球場)

This is a defunct stadium in Tokyo, and home to the Yomiuri Giants for 50 years. Even though I don't live in Japan and never had the chance to visit the place, it is an important stadium to me personally, as I would often hear my Dad and his friends talk about it back in the day.

The earliest information I can find dates back to the 60s. It's really hard to get a clear look at the old photos. The entire area is also completely different now. I had to use my best imagination and estimation to finish this one. It won't be 100% accurate but I do feel that the resemblance is good enough. Here is the recreation of Korakuen Stadium in its 1960s~70s glory:

By the way, the stadium went through several renovations (including expanded upper deck seating, different lighting, even artificial turf). It looks quite different by 1988 when it was finally demolished. I plan to modify this model into that version when I got more time later on.
