This stadium is informally called Yankee Stadium III (The renovated stadium is considered Yankee Stadium II).

The existing stadium opened in 1923, making it the third oldest Major League Baseball stadium currently in use behind Fenway Park and Wrigley Field respectively. Groundbreaking ceremonies for the stadium took place on August 16, 2006, the 58th anniversary of Babe Ruth's death, with team owner George Steinbrenner, Governor of New York George Pataki, Mayor of New York City Michael Bloomberg among the notables donning Yankees hard hats and digging up some dirt to mark the occasion. The new facility has a planned 2009 opening (the same year as Citi Field, future home of the New York Mets).
