Hold Your Horses On "Fenway Park At 100"

First Of All, Fenway Park had a major Fire in 1933, as the stands were destroyed, though the exterior did hold up, while the interior was completely rebuilt. However, the SITE has been in continuous use since 1912. On the park's exterior, it reads NEW Fenway Park, completed in 1934, with concrete instead of all wooden seating areas:

So, is it The Original Park, or is it a Second Fenway Park? After all, Navin Field(Tiger Stadium) was built on the same site as Bennett Park. And Yankee Stadium I did close in 1973, with the exterior being reinforced, with a totally new interior, Yankee Stadium II opened in April, 1976;

Fenway Park I, lasted from April, 1912 until the Winter of 1933-1934. Fenway Park II has lasted from 1934 until the Present Day, with loads of Renovations in this current Century;

With this scenario, does this make Wrigley Field The Oldest Park in MLB?
