St. Louis, MO – Busch Stadium is coming down faster than anticipated.

Crews started taking the stadium apart last month, the day after the Cardinals' season ended. When a wrecking ball started demolition earlier this month, offiicals said the stadium would be completely gone by next June. Now, crews appear to be on pace to be half done by January, with the stadium entirely gone by March.

The Cardinals will move into the new Busch Stadium next season.
