Having consulted the Fenway website, it is clear that it seats 7,000 more than the Stadium. Right now, many Yale students are shut out of the Stadium due to its small size, which seems a shame to me. Harvard is between a rock and a hard place on this issue for a variety of reasons: 1. Unrelenting attacks from Trump Admin that endanger any project outside the scope of institutional core purposes; 2. Poor performance of Harvard endowment, especially its reliance on illiquid assets; and 3. Difficulty of renovating a dilapidated structure that any fair inspection would consign to condemnation.

It is nice to wax eloquent about historic structures, but not if they are a menace to health, comfort and safety, as the pile on the Charles is.

Author: Ivy wanna be [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 17:04:56 08/28/25 Thu Wasn’t this task being undertaken 6 years ago. Then they pulled the plug on it.? It’s hard for anyone to get a ticket up in Brighton. I haven’t been to a game up there since 2006. Not for the lack of trying either.
