It would have been a TIGHT fit if they had lost that northern strip of land occupied by the shuttle structure. Remember, they had to construct it at the same time the old stadium was still there, so no overlapping was possible.You can even see they had to shave the turnouts back a bit to squeeze the stadium in. My guess is they left as little as possible to avoid compromising the structure of the el on River Ave. |
