The first baseball game in the new Yankee Stadium will be played tonight, an exhibition game between the Yankees and the Chicago Cubs, and the press is full of images of the new stadium, with signage, architectural graphics and a new Yankees Museum by C&G Partners. Here are a few images from slideshows from the NY Daily News. Stay tuned for more images from all of the opening events.
C&G Partners is working on the signage, architectural graphics and exhibits at the new Yankee Stadium, which opens to the public next month. Although the project is still officially under wraps until the public opening, images of the work in progress have been appearing in various places (see previous post) for a few months and in the Yankees official online photo galleries. Last week, this image of the exterior facade of the new stadium appeared in the New Yorker, in an article by Paul Goldberger. The architectural graphics shown in the image were designed by the firm.
The Yankees project is being led by Partner Keith Helmetag and Associate Partner Amy Siegel.
A C&G Partners team led by Partner Keith Helmetag and Associate Partner Amy Siegel have created the signage and wayfinding program for the new Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center (EMPAC) at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) in Troy, New York.
The new facility, designed by architects Grimshaw with Davis Brody Bond Aedas, houses performance spaces and artist-in-residence studios.

EMPAC is featured in Metropolis Magazine this month. C&G Partners worked with architects Grimshaw and Davis Brody Bond Aedas to create the signage and architectural graphics for this precedent-setting project for Rensellaer Polytechnic Institute’s (RPI’s) Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center in Troy, New York.
Today marks the second anniversary of the re-opening of Griffith Observatory, on November 3, 2006, with exhibits designed by C&G Partners. The Observatory is the most popular public observatory in the world, and one of the most photogenic, playing a starring role in many films.
In commemoration, here is a collection of images of the exhibits at Griffith that C&G Partners designed. The twist: these were not taken by professionals. They are all by the public at large, via Flickr (link to a great Flickr slide show of full-screen images at the very bottom of this post).
There are 360 images total here, which is only a fraction of the Griffith exhibit images available on Flickr. A statue of Albert Einstein is a favorite subject.
C&G Partners is working on signage, architectural graphics and exhibits at the new Yankee Stadium, opening in April 2009. Today the Times ran an image of the main sign being installed (shown here) alongside an article about security at the last game.
