New York City to get $11.5 million from Yankees

NEW YORK (AP)—New York City will receive $11.5 million from the Yankees in
exchange for giving the team rights to sell off seats, signs and other
memorabilia from their old ballpark.
After two homestands at the new Yankee Stadium dominated by home runs and
empty seats near the field, the Yankees and Steiner Collectibles scheduled a
news conference for Tuesday to announce memorabilia sales and prices for the
original Yankee Stadium, including sod and dirt plus bricks from Monument
Park.
“The city’s agreement with the Yankees will generate much-needed revenue
for the city, and offer fans a chance to own some of the famed Yankee Stadium
history,” New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg said in a statement Monday.
The Mets sold seats from Shea Stadium at $869 per pair, and the Yankees were
expected to charge substantially more. The city said it has earned $3.5
million from the sale of Shea Stadium memorabilia, under which it gets 70
percent of revenue after sale costs and the Mets receive 30 percent.
Assemblyman Richard Brodsky, a constant critic of the Yankees, disapproved of
the agreement.
“The value of the relics of Yankee Stadium is clearly much more than $11.5
million,” he said in a statement. “After a yearlong delay which cost the
people of the Bronx access to their parkland, the deal that has apparently
been struck is again an economic victory for the Yankees and an economic
defeat to the taxpayers. There is no dispute that the people of the City
owned the old Yankee Stadium, and there is no reason to cap their economic
gain at $11.5 million. We also believe an appraisal was required before the
deal could be struck, and it is not clear that any such appraisal was done.”
