New Arrowhead Stadium revealed today

[WEIRDWOLF]

OK Reggie-start building this one...

“The New Arrowhead” will give fans a greater variety of experiences beyond the on-field action. Stadium improvements include concourses that will be nearly doubled in size, allowing fans to get to their seats – and back to the action on the field – in less time; more restrooms; a greater variety of food and beverages to enjoy; a broad range of bars, concessions and seating areas within the concourses; and club lounge spaces to enjoy with family and friends.
Other additions will feature an upgraded sound system, new video board displays - including a 360 degree ribbon board around the lower fascia of the stadium - a new press box, and a new group seating area - the Horizon Level.
The improvements also call for a Chiefs’ Hall of Fame – The Hall of Honor - and an expanded team store.
“The Hall of Honor will be a lasting monument to all the great Chiefs players, coaches and administrators who have helped build this storied franchise over the years, but especially to the late Lamar Hunt,” Peterson said. “The Hall will be, in football folklore, sacred ground for Chiefs fans who have supported this team throughout its history.”
“Our ultimate goal is to enhance the Arrowhead experience for Chiefs fans,” Peterson said. “These improvements will add even more excitement and emotion to the legendary atmosphere that places Arrowhead in the highest echelon of NFL stadiums, while remaining, in our opponents’ eyes, one of the loudest and most feared places to play in the league.”
The Horizon Level is designed to give fans in the upper level a coach’s view of the game. The south side will rise above the original Arrowhead bowl and will feature new concessions and bathroom facilities for patrons at the rear of upper deck seating; cabaret, suite and premium seating; additional provisions for disabled patrons; and an expanded press box area for coaches and media. The north side is the sunny side, providing warmth to fans on cool days.
The suites will increase in size and be reconstructed to create an upscale environment with all the features expected in today’s professional sport venue. They will give patrons an unobstructed view of the field, as well as unparalleled luxury and service. In addition, the suite walls will be shift ed to eliminate structural columns from obstructing the view to the field from the suite interior.

Will it be next to the old stadium? Will the old one be imploded, and used as parking? There's nothing like building a new stadium to get the fans hyped! I worked on the Linc, here in Philly,(as well as the Phillies ballpark) and the fans were very excited. I hated the fact that I was building a stadium for the Eagles (yuck) but there was no denying the electric atmosphere that new stadiums create. Here in Philly, we imploded the old Vet. I have some great shots of the Vet, while we were working on the Linc.
Wolf, it was too bad I didn't get a chance to see the old Arrowhead, maybe the next time I'm in your neck of the woods, you can swing me by this new facility!

Yah, they should of...I get no respect.

Corey, The best part about the FACELIFT is that they are not changing the bowl so Arrowhead will still maintain the volumne level of noise that it is known for.
