Original Ebbets Field blueprints

@formerdirtdart sent this to me two weeks ago but I missed it…hopefully this exhibit is still happening.

 

a century-long odyssey will come to an end when the original 1912 blueprints for Ebbets Field, the iconic home of the beloved, bedeviling Brooklyn Dodgers, will be displayed in public for the first time in decades.

They will be the centerpiece of an exhibit on the Dodgers at Brooklyn College…

The Mets’ plan to model Citi Field after Ebbets Field jump-started Mr. Kennedy’s plans. He offered Mets officials the prints, and there was an initial plan to display them in the entrance rotunda, Mr. Kennedy said.
But the team ultimately decided against it, he said. A spokesman for the Mets declined to comment.
