Demolition work has begun on Tiger Stadium
Andrew Norton
Tiger Stadium has suffered it's first wounds in the demolition phase of it's existence. A gaping hole was torn in the cement block wall behind the bleacher seats. For pictures see this article at the Detroit News. Demolition is currently only taking place between Trumbull and Cochrane while awaiting the August 1 deadline for the Tiger Stadium Conservancy or any other group to raise the funds necessary to save a portion of the stadium between the dugouts.
