That's a funny looking tree mate.

The guru on the stadium build is Skiathos - he's full on with the stadium geeks at Skyscrapercity who are apparently addicted (I'm close tbf) and are now 'meccano spotting' for every minute change. The 'trees' x 2 will hold up the South stand, as per the picture earlier in this thread.

 

[corroded]

To be fair, it does look like the support tree, but I'm just being a git because it's early ;D

 

[Don Diaz]

That tree is growing btw.....check the official site and camera's. There's something big happening right now because they've moved the big red and yellow crane in. This thread couldn't get any more anal could it???!! Ha ha.

 

[Finchbee]

Yeah and some cunt turned the rain on

 

[corroded]

What's the manufacturer of that crane?

if you look at the diagrams, I reckon it's about half height? I'm struggling the escalators at Wembley atm going up to level 5.....give me the heebie - jeebie's there's nothing around them and full glass on the outside.

Here I will show you;
Side elevation of stand in full.
If you count down 23 rows from the top (back) of the stand,thats directly below the middle triangle on the roof,so thats about 2/3rds height at present I reckon.Make sense?

Rear of stand showing "trees and glass atrium"

inside render of tree and atrium

Part of terracing/steelwork still to be fitted (I count 23 rows of seats),you can see this sits on the tree,maybe more clearly on the image above

Its almost like I know what I am saying !!

Many thanks to all the truly smart skyscrapercity posters for the images and 2nd hand knowledge !!

 

[skiathospurs]

Don just for you!!

 

[skiathospurs]

From above tweet,cos I know no one clicks to make em full size!!

 

[Don Diaz]

Don just for you!!

For Fuck sake, who climbs up a fucking crane?? Mental. There are perfectly good photo's and action like today's tree building from the camera's on the official site. Gives me the wobbles...

Where did he go?

 

[Ted the Yid]

The upper tiers of the north, east and west stands look steep as fuck.

I fucking hate heights.

I'm alright when I get to my seat row 2 in the upper tier at Wembley but getting to level 5 is horrible, 4 escalators looking at my shoes.

I've been waiting a half hour to see him post.... Boo!!! ... But it hasn't happened. I'm disappointed

Real Madrid match I was on the highest row in the s/w corner, didn't get vertigo and was very happy that I could stand the whole match with no stewards pestering me, but Wembley doesn't look as steep as the upper tiers of NWHL.

Almost broke a leg a couple of years ago when we came from behind to beat Swansea on the shelf when I slipped down a row or two.

Bring back terracing, far safer for a clumsy cunt like me.

You can actually see Don's vertigo induced vomit next to the green trucks cab.

seen "its on track".........music to my ears

I have to say, while the stadium looks incredibly impressive, the East and West upper tier look horrifying. It's like a balcony at an old Broadway theatre. Only difference is you usually aren't piss drunk and jumping like a lunatic at a Broadway show. Usually. Hope they have a strong netting or fencing at the bottom of the tier because folks are definitely gonna slip and fall.

Might be the first to fall from heaven!

There will be all sorts of health and safety guidelines on raking etc. I'm sure that it's not as steep as it looks in real life. Levy got his little legs up to the top step the day with the NFL big wigs so it should be fine.
