After 33 years, a Philadelphia landmark is down to its last 17 days.
The Philadelphia Phillies, in conjunction with city officials, announced Wednesday that Veterans Stadium, home to the Phillies and Eagles for more than three decades, will be imploded at 7 a.m. Sunday, March 21.

Generations of memories will collapse in a 58-second explosion of what will be basically a concrete skeleton.

Brandenburg Industrial Service Co. is the demolition sub-contractor and Demolition Dynamics is its implosion sub-contractor.

On the morning of the implosion -- the first day of spring -- the area immediately surrounding the stadium will be off limits to spectators.

The area will be bordered by Lawrence Street to the east, 18th Street to the west, the Schuylkill Expressway to the north, and I-95 to the south.

Following the implosion, conventional demolition will continue, breaking the debris into smaller pieces of rubble more suitable for a landfill.

Once crushed, the concrete will amount to about 70,000 cubic yards of material. The hole in the ground at the site will require more than 400,000 cubic yards to fill.

Once the crater is filled in, additions of storm drains, concrete curbs, lights, signs and fences and the laying of asphalt will complete the project.

The entire process is expected to be completed by the fall and will result in 5,500 new parking spaces for the sports complex.

Once the parking lot is complete, the Phillies will commemorate the Vet by painting an outline of the StadiumĀ’s playing field and placing granite markers on the former home plate, pitching mound and base locations.

The four Joe Brown statues that were at various Vet entrances will be relocated to the perimeter of the new parking lot, two on Pattison Avenue and two on Hartranft Street.

A tribute to veterans will also be developed adjacent to the sidewalk on the North side of Pattison Avenue.

A considerable landscaping project, including the planting of hundres of trees, will also be part of the new parking area.
