Shea Stadium continues to be dismantled. The Upper Deck is almost completely gone. The pedestrian ramps at Gate A and Gate E have been torn down. And what was once a partial circular stadium at about 240 degrees has been reduced to less than 180 degrees. Shea's footprint is diminishing in leaps and bounds.

It appears to me they are ahead of schedule. Jeff Wilpon had talked of the parking lot, where Shea stood, not being completed by opening day. But that was before Shea's razing began.
