English: Composite "before, during and after" image of the Spectrum in Philadelphia, PA. The top images was taken in April 2004, five years before the arena was closed. The middle image was taken seven years later as its demolition was being completed in April, 2011. The white areas seen at ground level of the "after" image were the walls of the hockey and basketball lockerooms used by the Philadelphia Flyers (NHL), Philadelphia Phantoms (AHL), Philadelphia 76ers (NBA) and visiting teams. Citizens Bank Park, home of the Philadelphia Phillies, is seen to the right, the parking lot beyond the Spectrum was the former site of Veterans Stadium (demolished in 2004), and the Philadelphia skyline is in the distance. The bottom image is how the site appeared in Spetember 2011 after it had been converted to a parking lot. All three images were taken from the same location in the Wells Fargo Center, the arena that replaced the Spectrum. (Digital image created by the uploader thereof.)
