Gonna be modeled on this apparently

If true...thats awesome, because this lucas oil stadium is probably the greatest looking stadium out there. Imagine something like that at the BMD.

i love the design, it seems so compact, yet cavernous inside. we would just have to re-model the seating behind the goals

15 March it's getting announced. 125 years to the day we moved to Goodison, also there a Land owners convention or something that day and Peel are to discuss Liverpools water front.

Could be wrong but it adds up

It does - I suspect the property thing will be MIPIM (in Canne) which is a big event in the property world. Would make sense for an announcement then so Peel can attract further investment/interest in Liverpool Waters.

Why would a world renowned architect base his latest project on someone else's work? Very much doubt it, unless that was one of his?

 

[GwladysBlue]

Not that bad?

I hope that we have roller blinds on the glazing, when the opposition is playing roll them up so the sun is in their eyes.

Agree, total dirge from the weekend shift.

The big window would be a good feature as long as there is still a 'footy end' also there and presuming the ground is built in the traditional orientation.

I would imagine the glass facade would be the concourse and the stand built infront of it, as opposed to seats being on the back of the glazing A bit like Wembley where you go up the escalators before getting to the stand.

Yes not up to much behind that goal, I don't know what the other end is like. The sides seem decent enough though.

Meis has previously tweeted that the stadium will NOT be based on any other design and is not like anything he has designed before

Dan Meis, the architect behind Everton’s new stadium plans, has seen another of his European projects rejected.

The new Stadio della Roma, Roma’s new stadium, will be rejected by the new Mayor of Rome this week, according to reports in Italy.

The news is a major blow to Roma after months of negotiations around the stadium – and could spell an end for the project.

The issue around the stadium is be cause it covers just 14% of the proposed development – with the rest featuring shops, hotels,
restaurants and offices. It also includes three skyscraper towers.

However, the new anti-establishment Movimento 5 Stelle party in power in Rome is against the development, saying nobody lives in the Tor Di Valle area and the new development is just ‘real estate speculation’.

According to Football-Italia: “Members of the M5S party have attacked this project as an instance of real estate speculation, claiming there was no point in investing such substantial amounts for a neighbourhood in which almost nobody lives.”

New mayor Virginia Raggi is expected to follow her party’s recommendation and block the project.

The news will be a blow to Meis Architects, which said the stadium will include a ‘wall of fans’ to intimidate opposing teams, an on-site brewery, training facilities and giant screens in a fan zone to screen away games.

Dan Meis is currently working on plans for a new Everton stadium. However, if the stadium is at the site of the Bramley Moore Dock, the club’s first choice, it is unlikely to face the same issues.

The site already has outline planning permission for residential buildings, while nearby developments in Liverpool Waters will be handled by Peel Holdings.

If the Bramley Moore Dock site is chosen, it is likely Everton will buy the land outright from Peel, meaning nearby developments will not affect the build.

Everton will have to infill the dock and create better infrastructure however, but Liverpool City Council is supportive of the move.
