The stadium served as the home of the St. Louis Cardinals National League baseball team for its entire operating existence, while also serving as home to the National Football League's Cardinals team from 1966 to 1987. It opened four days after the last baseball game was played at Sportsman's Park (which had also been known since 1953 as Busch Stadium). The stadium was designed by Sverdrup & Parcel and built by Grün & Bilfinger.〔(Bilfinger Berger Corporate history animation )〕 Edward Durell Stone designed the roof, a 96-arch "Crown of Arches".〔(Save the Arches – jbauer.com – Retrieved January 22, 2008 )〕 The Crown echoed the Gateway Arch, which had been completed only a year before Busch Stadium opened. It was one of the first multipurpose "cookie-cutter" facilities built in the United States, popular from the early 1960s through the early 1980s. The stadium was demolished by wrecking ball in late-2005 and part of its former footprint is occupied by its replacement stadium—the new Busch Stadium (aka Busch Stadium III). ==History== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Busch Memorial Stadium」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
