The 161 st Street Business Improvement District (BID) is gearing up for Opening Day at Yankee Stadium.
The Jeter Meter on River Ave.(bet 161 & 162 St.) reads, ”Welcome Back Yankees.”
Free 28 IN 2018 buttons will be distributed to fans at Billy’s, The Dugout, Stan’s and Yankee Tavern (while supplies last).
A new mural featuring Yankee legends, Joe DiMaggio, Whitey Ford and Thurman Munson, will be introduced by famed portraitist, Andre Trenier.
“Whitey Ford is a Hall of Famer who epitomizes victory,”said Dr. Cary Goodman, the BID’s founding, executive director.”Hopefully his portrait will bring a winning spirit to this year’s team, and we’ll celebrate 28 in 2018.”
