More Yankee, Yogi Memorabilia After Renovation

"The House that Yogi Built" -- opened 11 years ago as the Yogi Berra Museum & Learning Center-- will go through a $2.5 million renovation and increase space to show off the memorabilia of a most memorable life.

"What appeals to people is just how genuine he is and how he treats everybody with respect," said museum director David Kaplan.

Berra, the long-time Yankee catcher and Hall of Famer is 84 now, but still donned a hard hat and showed up for the groundbreaking Monday in New Jersey.

According to this story in the Newark Star-Ledger, the Yankees have apparently saved some special items from their former home to help boost the museum too.
