The East and the West upper aren't the same height so they can't be connected.

All I hope is future renovations don't take away from the colosseum look.

Looks great...but let's be honest...

took me a second to get it.
the funny thing is that i wouldn't be surprised if that was the actual rendering they released

I wouldn't think that the height would matter to connect them as long as they are the same angle/degree of slope. (Isn't that why they claimed they had to redo the West Upper so it would match the angle of the East Upper?)
Looks like they are giving up space for another a suite on each side. But as someone said, it could also be a blindspot.
3D drawing looks pretty

They have no more than about 500 grouped together in any one place so you hardly notice them, especially you won't hear them.
well its gonna be mostly visitor seats anyway.

they rebuilt the West Upper to install suites first and foremost.

Yep. Not to mention how bad it would look with the new South Endzone deck if the old west upper would still be there. No symmetry at all.
But I remember Alleva saying that there had been a different plan for an upperdeck (probably resembling more of the current east and west), but that many of the seats would be way too far from the field. As such, they went back to the drawing board.

i think the outside looks pretty good honestly.

the proportions and geometry are just weird looking. They tried to replicate the north endzone look but it comes across as a knock-off version because the proportions are stretched due to the height of the addition. Also, they placed the arches in the upper cantilevered cornice thing, whereas the north endzone has a nicely proportioned cornice that tops off the lower bowl ABOVE the arches.

yes i know what you are saying. still looks fine to me though.

Here's an exterior 3d rendering i've never seen yet. Not sure if anyone else has seen it...
Posted on 12/17/13 at 11:17 am to Roberteaux
Haven't seen that one. Doesn't look bad.
Posted on 12/17/13 at 12:10 pm to Roberteaux
i really hope that they didn't just stick big boxes at the top level of the upper deck for the bathrooms and concession stands. That looks absolutely ridiculous. Almost like they forgot about them and just stuck them out in the open at the top.
Posted on 12/17/13 at 12:12 pm to Roberteaux
I hadnt seen that.
why the hell did they leave the cranes in the picture?

What a dickfied comment! Great negative post regarding something that you have no clue about.
Anyway, I'd be ok with using the new screens for mostly advertisements if it meant getting rid of some or most of the ads on the big screen.
...who am I kidding, they'll use the new screens as billboards and keep the same amount of ads on the big screen.
