When will Tiger Stadium be replaced, & what kind of stadium would you want to replace it?

Tiger Stadium is approaching 100 years old. At what point in the future do you think it will finally need to be replaced?
Whenever that time comes, what do you want in a stadium? I think Northwestern’s new stadium is pretty awesome and state of the art. Maybe we could have a larger version of Northwestern’s stadium with a canopy overhead to protect people from the weather and spacious wide open concourses for people to walk around the stadium and get concessions and bathroom breaks with ease.
I wouldn’t mind downsizing a bit. I don’t think 102,000 seats are needed anymore. Our peak attendance levels are in the past, and it’s pretty embarrassing to see all the empty seats on TV. Even when you’re in the stadium, the empty seats kind of ruin the mood and aesthetics. 85,000 to 90,000 seats might be a better sweet spot. The seats should be upgraded by having chair backs and being wide.
What would you guys want in a new stadium, and how many decades away do you think we are from that?

The current building should be renovated indefinitely.

The stadium turned 100 two years ago.
But in reality, only a very small portion of the stadium is 100 years old. I don’t think it is going anywhere anytime soon.

At some point the concourses and bathrooms need a major renovation
South endzone is a disaster. It’s 30 minutes to do anything during the game

Dude, that’ll never happen. For one, where would the team play in the interim? Major renovations and expansions have been recently completed. That stadium will be there 100 years from today.

Wrigley Field is the ultimate example of preserving aesthetic history while keeping up with the times. Everything inside Wrigley is a first class experience. Bathrooms are small but remodeled. Concourse is clean and simple. Concessions are a breeze. Any renovation should reference that as the gold standard.

The guts can be updated within the stadium, more than likely they will do a reno to decrease seating in the older sections so they can increase concourse and such. The stadium will stand for near eternity.

I'd rather football cease to exist than have Tiger Stadium replaced.

River Center, since that is the go-to, un-thought out stupid response to the PMAC questions.

So, first you want football to cease to exist? And then you want tiger stadium replaced? What would you replace it with?
Eta: unless you meant "than".

East sideline just as bad, in lower level on the top part… concourse is a legit hallway

Definitely time to put in the purple field with solid gold end zones
