Hopefully the HRM and other levels of government will go ahead with a stadium in the near future but for now it is just a strong desire and not a proposal.

I have been working on a computer model of a stadium based on the InfoCision field in Akron Ohio but with some modifications. Initially, I did a model based on the ancient Epidaurus amphitheater concept but it didn't work well for a large stadium. Because of the requirements for washrooms and other facilities it just isn't an attractive concept for a large stadium. However, a stadium like the InfoCision Stadium has a lot of room in the end zones for landscaping. Great landscaping could help to make it a great stadium. I won't be able to do the landscaping portion justice with my computer model.

Once the second model, based on InfoCision stadium, is complete, I will upload the 3-D computer model to Google Earth and see if I can paste it on the DND site and possibly other sites.

Excellent... the DND lands with a stadium and good landscaping would change the feel of that part of town.
