Shea stadium

 Here is Shea Stadium under construction in 1963. It opened in 1964. The Mets played there from 1974-2008. The Jets (NFL) played there from 1964-1983, Yankees there in 1974-75 and the Giants in 1975. Jets and Giants moved to the Meadowlands, Yankees moved back to Yankee Stadium after renovations and the Mets moved to Citi Field for 2009.
