\"plate1\"<\/a>The old York County Courthouse looms in the distance as the York Revolution’s new home goes up along Arch Street last week. Also of interest: \u00a0<\/a>From Penn Park field to Sovereign Bank Stadium, York-area baseball fans have heard \u2018Play ball\u2019<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This photograph ran on the York Daily Record\/Sunday News weekly York Revolution page today.
\nPage 7D.
\nBut perhaps it deserved better display, as a potentially iconic picture of what’s happening in downtown York.
\nThe turn-of-the-20th-century courthouse, recently remodeled, is seen in Bil Bowden’s photograph through the frame of the new baseball stadium.
\nThe stadium represents all the city’s best hopes for the future… .<\/p>\n


\nIt’s a classic case of old York — the courthouse<\/a> — being sublimated by new York, an attraction that could potentially bring 5,000 people downtown for each game.
\nAnd it’s not as if the old courthouse is just old. It’s been attractively rehabbed.
\nSo we shouldn’t push the familiar domed building and its history<\/a> too far back.
\nMaybe both can become early-21st-century icons of a city looking ahead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
