Stadium Discussion

Reminder that Populous came to NYC in order to further their residential/industrial design prospects/ability and still hadn't be involved or contacted about stadium-related business as of last year.

That's actually a picture of the real stadium, and it's already been built in the middle of the city -but it's like a speakeasy, and you have to know where to look because it's camouflaged with no exterior signage. I guess you aren't one of the cool kids and in the know.

Btw, it has real philly cheesetakes from Pat's.

Pat's? From Philly? Trash. Jim's is where it's at.

Though the guy who looks like you seems to be eating a grilled cheese sandwich.

There's never anybody manning the grilled cheese cart.... it's like we're second class spectators.

mgarbowski , there's your angle. Casually ask Patricof what he thinks of hologram away games. If he thinks it's a good idea, we have confirmation.

I'm sorry but that sort of cruelty to those of us on the forum who suddenly find themselves cheesesteak-deprived and who mention cheesesteaks in their sigs is surely worth a two or three day ban.

I really hope I'm wrong and something has changed recently #prayersup

Just pointing out that there's (maybe) a bucket of gold at the end of the rainbow for the cheesesteak crowd...

(I know nothing about future cheesesteak venders at the stadium, but if we're going to get one it might as well be better than Carl's - never liked the YS version - and Jersey Mikes)

It is interesting that they used images of NYCFC fans and logos.... I think those would be copyrighted and not easily used unless given permission. Perhaps actually inserted as an Easter Egg?

Historic first reverse canary.

I listened, read, or watch an architect describe the ideal stadium design as part of a city. They said it would be a typical public space, like a park, that would be assembled and disassembled when needed.

So, when games were being played there would be a place to play it and when games were not being played, the city and it's citizens would have the land to themselves.

Huh?

What about a stadium where the seats DROP INTO THE GROUND. Like a submarine rising

Or how about the stands on four sides all hinge so before/after games they close like a box, with the public park on the top sides, but for the game they flip up and rest at an angle. Just like a transformer. Optimus City?

Floating Stadium -> Etihad Island -> and now.. Folding Stadium

What if we all promise to bring our own chairs and clean up after ourselves - can we play in a central Park
