Levi's Stadium pics and info... | Page 503

All the details you could ever want about the design of the new Santa Clara Stadium... It looks like they actually moved the site tho. It was supposed to be on the other side of that creek (the treeline in the lower left of the first pic). They moved it right next to the existing 49ers Facility....4949 Centennial. It now looks like one big complex. I know there are alot of people who don't like it because it kinda bland, but I personally like it. It reminds me of Lincoln Financial in Philli. Below is the presentation to the city. http://santaclaraca.gov/pdf/collateral/49ers-20080813-Project-Description.pdf EDIT: Looks like that link is now dead. I found something similar, but not the exact same PDF... http://santaclaraca.gov/ftp/csc/pdf/49ers-20080813-Project-Description.pdf EDIT AGAIN: Found a Page with a number of Site Plans. Very cool, but hard to read. http://santaclaraca.gov/index.aspx?page=1197 [ Edited by Marvin49 on May 29, 2009 at 11:36:11 ]

Ya cause you gonna sit outside and look at the outside of the stadium all game..The fact that u can have a view of the field when your not in your seat with the open concourse is really cool that i dont think any other stadium has. I dreaded having to leave my seat at candlestick with the small walk ways, long ass lines.. The gameday experiences is gonna be off the chain, baby!!

Or most every stadium...

Since when were stadiums supposed to look good from the outside?

I think baseball has stadiums that look good from the outside. But, other sports it's not as important. It's nice if it looks good from the outside, but who cares.

Exaggeration much? I think it's a bit basic but it's still easily better than the two other California NFL stadiums by far.

The exterior of the atrium fans will immediately see when approaching the stadium looks nice and will look even better when they put up all the decorations.

I don't care for the rest of the exterior all that much but nobody's going to the games to look at the back of the stadium.
