Brilliant pictures once again jrb.

There's been a lot of progress since the end of the season.
I'm really looking forward to seeing the finished article at the Chelsea game!

When I drove past the other day, the South Stand appeared taller than the CB and East Stands, and some of the above shots appear to confirm that!

Am I right in thinking they're going to install a huge City crest in the centre of the glass panels?

Top work JRB mate.

Did you manage to see inside JRB and how advanced the work is? If the services were in etc. I have a feeling the work cosmetically will still be ongoing as the season progresses. Still it looks amazing and I cannot wait for the new season

Imagine your an away fan that went to a game in 2014 and saw this.....

Then came back 1 year(okay it'd be over 12 months but you get my point 2015) and saw the below, you'd be pretty shocked at how quick that's happened wouldn't you?

Wait until it gets mentioned on TalkShite - then they'll be moaning and winging and and and everything.......

I watched the jrb show live, lol. Great pics as always. This has to be the most architecturally and artistically advanced football stadium in England. Unique design and when it is completed, it will be awesome. My guess is that those grey panels and even the mesh will also serve some additional purpose e.g electrical displays, advertisement, etc and at night time it will be stunning.

The constructors still have a lot of work to do it seems but I am sure they have drawn out a strict schedule from the time available and so it should be completed in time.

You're on about the blue skies, yeah?

[crazyg]

Will they glaze it, or use a fancy mesh of sort?
Pair of curtains might do the trick ;-)

Pull yourself together man!

Great piccies JRB. May go down to have a gander next week.

Those of us who have witnessed it growing have maybe become immune to it, but seeing the comparison, it's staggering.
Those corners still look like they've collapsed though!
