North Stand Construction Discussion

[Gray]

You have to actually go in person to see the development, it is bloody massive.

I am very impressed with what I saw today.

These are my shots from today
Second Tier Concourse Family Stand with plastic sheet keeping the weather out


New ironwork (coninuation of seat rake) and pillars bolted to ground


View look towards westwards - the Moonies frieze on the wall has been seen from cpoverviews drone videos

View of the roof/props/boards above 2nd tier - later in the game the scaffold setup at the very right end near the big screen had security people sat in it watching what was going on

They’re not all gone, although this one was in mourning due to the loss of his two brothers.

Met an Ipswich fan in the Metrolink queue after the game. He claimed that we were building the stand on rollers and would push it forward when finished. He was adamant he was right.

Surely we will tow it with a tractor.

Loads of City fans looking up at the North stand taking shape and taking pictures today.

Ok, now I see it. Bottom photo, the roof trusses Are actually braced in pairs, eith the diagonals between the V-props. That's why they are doing the hit and miss roof removal, inbetween the braced pairs. Just needed a photo close enough to show it.
