Re: OT: Shea Stadium

Adding:

If the Dodgers had indeed stayed in New York, what I suspect would have happened was this:

After Ebbets Field is renovated, the then-Titans of New York/Jets likely play 1-2 season at Ebbets Field, Yankee Stadium or some combination of both while the Polo Grounds is converted to a football-only stadium and state of the art (for 1964-'66). Shea is never built as once the Dodgers are allowed to build the Domed stadium at the Atlantic Yards, that is built in the early '70s, however, it is possible by the late 1980's, especially after the Yankees are wooed by New Jersey to play in a stadium there, Leon Hess looks to have the Jets play in a new stadium or do what actually did happen with their moving across the Hudson. That might have prompted by then the building of a new stadium where Shea was at Willets point for football that would have had all the luxury boxes and things that by then were coming en vogue.
