McMahon Stadium from this summer, shot with my iPhone.

On a related note, down the block and around the corner from my house is a place with artificial grass as the front lawn.

Appears it was put in just this summer/fall. Will be interesting to see how beat up it is, how full of debris it is, when the snow clears in the spring…
