Fans depart the Yankees-East 153rd Street Train Station for Yankee Stadium on Mariano Rivera Day, Sunday, September 22.
More than 5,000 fans will travel to Yankee Stadium by Metro North Train on a well-attended game day. Opened during the 2009 baseball season, the Yankees-E. 153rd Street Station has so reduced car traffic to the Yankees Heritage Field complex in the Bronx that the extensive parking facilities built for the new stadium “will likely default on the tax-free bonds that financed the project,” according to the Tri-State Transportation Campaign.
