In 1938 Briggs Stadium in Detroit had an expansion project -extension to stands. Here are some unusual pictures from the company that did the project. Giffels & Valley Inc.

I could probably add tons to this thread, but then I wouldn't be able to get any painting done.

Here are a couple shots of the Polo Grounds during the 1913 World Series:

I own 20 or so original photos from the files of the White Construction Co. documenting the contruction of Yankee Stadium.

Alot of fun to pore over these with an eyeglass - seeing the workers hammering in the bleacher seats, carrying paint, sweeping, etc.

Too many of the later ones are not scanned in - they are beauties - including one panoramic shot of the completed park.

What are remarkable feat of human engineering - all done in 10 months!

Those Yankee Stadium Constuction shots are amazing... and Jimmy's view from right field is nothing short of spectacular.

Here's one perhaps not so monumental, but a Stadium you rarely see pictured. Maybe because the Senators' play over the years was so "forgettable". Anyway, here's a panoramic shot of Griffith Stadium in DC, taken in the early 1940s...
