Etihad Campus, Stadium Development and Collar Site

[jrb]

I've taken some pictures of the training Academy this Morning. And Boy, is it looking good. I'll either post them tonight or tomorrow Morning.

I've also started a new thread on SSC. Please put it in your favs for regular picture updates. The first set is below, along with renders and a flythrough video of the new footbridge. Once I find the planning application I 'll post that as well. If anyone can add anymore information or renders, I would be grateful. :-)

Manchester City Training Academy - Etihad Campus Footbridge

The area around the proposed footbridge has been fenced off ready for construction of the footbridge to begin. I've taken a few pictures today and posted renders and a flythrough video of the proposed footbridge.

When I've got time I'll post the planning application with all the details of the bridge.

I'll be updating the pictures throughout the construction of the bridge.

Sorry campers but that bridge looks well shit to me, i know it was said the design did'nt want to upstage anything that might be going on the collar site.. but still...it's very manky-way looking.

Amazing isn´t it? In ten short years we´ve gone from that to the current plans
Truly mindblowing

I agree its nothing on the original concept, but needs must I suppose

Couldn't resist another look at the old world... my god City knew how to look after its fans back then ;-)
