So the Kansas City Wizards (MLS) broke ground on their new stadium and I must say it's pretty nice. MLS is really coming into it's own in terms of stadium design.

The Houston Dynamo's stadium is expected to break ground in October, with a projected opening by April of 2012, before the season starts. Just gotta love the location next to Downtown, the only soccer stadium so close to a city's downtown. In the Dynamo's case, literally next door. I don't know why people keep building their stadiums in the suburbs.

anyway, renderings of the new Grêmio Arena stadium, for 52.500 people (all seater, for official FIFA matches) or 58.000 people (with part of the seats being one of the goals removed, because fans like terraces).

Miami Marlins ballpark update
Amazing how quickly this ballpark is rising!

Is that being built on the site of the old Orange Bowl?
|
^ yes it is. In the satellite pic below the old Orange Bowl can be seen and it's being built in the heart of Little Havana.
http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/5...linsmarina.png The parking surrounding the Orange Bowl will become 4 highrise garages and the county has long range plans to extend Metrorail to the ballpark which currently has 2 stations less than a mile away. |
Really doesn't sound like they could've built it in a better place than Little Havana, given the popularity of baseball in Cuba. I don't remember: Do we have renderings elsewhere in this thread?

And they are getting new uniforms as well. http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h1...arlins2tu4.gif |
I don't think those are the actual new uniforms....from what I've heard, orange is going to become a major color for the logo and uniforms...
I was just up in the Santa Maria on Brickell a couple of days back, and the view of the ballpark from there is amazing! Can't wait to start watching games there! |

maybe I have missed the explanation, but what the hell is that massive viaduct-like structure around the stadium???? Alone, that thing must cost over $50 million! (maybe more)

The construction company is still hiring workers and bringing equipement. Three more pile driver machines are supposed to arrive in the next week or so and in a few months they want to have 2000 workers... |
the videos above bring me the question: do any of the other stadiums shown in this thread have this level of fan participation and support? Any videos showing it?
|
I'm surprised there's a thread on great stadiums, and no mention of the Stade Olympique in Montreal..
I'm a Toronto and Blue Jays fan, but I love this stadium.. http://enquira.ca/attractions/files/...lympique-1.jpg Tallest freestanding slanted structure in the world: http://www.canadiandesignresource.ca...Gauche_CDR.jpg http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4033/...7ea0fd7d_z.jpg It may have been a financial failure (3rd most expensive stadium ever built, City of Montreal just finished paying it off), and the interior wasn't even complete in time for the 1976 opening ceremonies, but it is still a great stadium nonetheless, one of the best in Canada. |
Trantor that viaduct type structure around the stadium in Miami is the guideway for the retractable roof.

Okay, I am just going to say it, I am very, very jealous of Asian stadiums right now...they seriously are making what is being built in the States over the past 10 years look like crap.

Vancouver's BC Place stadium renewal / retractable roof addition
Vancouver' BC Place stadium is undergoing a mid-life upgrade. The primary undertaking has been the removal of the air-supported teflon roof and the ongoing installation of a cable-supported retractable teflon roof. The opening at the centre will be 80metres by 110 metres. Significant upgrades to the building include new public washrooms and concession stands, new seats, new luxury and media boxes, new elevators, and many upgrades to electrical and mechanical systems. A large casino-hotel development will be built adjacent to the stadium and integrated into it.

The Marlins' ballpark is really looking great!
I saw it yesterday driving south on I95....Can't wait until next Spring! Uniform and logo reveal are going to be sometime in November...I got a connection, so hopefully it will be on a day off, so I can get over there... |
Ok, I was just in Miami in December and i pride my self in noticing construction - how the hell did i miss this thing. It looks great.
Where exactly is it? |
Little Havana, just west of downtown.
|
On the site of the old Orange Bowl stadium....
You can see it from I95... |
