No, that's actually a soccer-only stadium that will be the new home of the St. Louis Wizards in 2006.

Yep, all the greats. Stan Musical, Bill Gibson, Ditzy Dean, Lou Brachs, Mark McGrath.

Yeah, that new stadium is gonna look nice though, at least somebody gets to make stadium improvements. They need to move it about 50 feet away from the interstate though, I don't think they planned it out very well. You could literally stand on the highway and throw a baseball into the new stadium.

Are they saving that section for something?

It's like it's being gobbled up by an invisible Adam Jones.

Now if they could just finish the job and do the rest of the city I know I could breathe easier.

Ozzie Smith was on the radio and said he was hoping they'd keep one section of it up forever like they did with the Roman coliseum.

Umm, Mr. Ozzie? The Coliseum is all pretty much still there. Yep, all the way around. Some of it's missing, but most of it, still there.

I noticed in today's time lapse that the Old Busch is entirely gone now.
