North Stand Construction Discussion

I think those wrapped items scattered through the hotel floors are bathroom pods. Fully finished pods, not pallets of material that needs assembled btw. They are the right size, and way they are grouped in twos and spread either side of side of columns on the two levels, says to me they are ready to move into place and unwrap, and just plug in effectively. Mirrors, sanitaryware etc will all be already done within them.

I don't see that - have you ever stopped in a hotel with a 'bathroom pod' - classic French Campanile/Formula 1, I'm sure we can do better than that! ;-)

Most Japanese hotels use bathroom pods. The quality goes from a caravan feel to being indistinguishable from a normal bathroom. All down to how much you want to pay.

They aren't bad, and you'd be surprised how many are built that way. And how much it speeds things up. I think when I first saw the plans I thought they looked like a version of a pod by a relatively big brand. But then I thought the amount of variations here complicates it here. So not convinced either way yet, but seeing the site video makes me think it could well be that.

Edit. Just checked the CMP.
They are 100% pods.
 
Maybe the club and Sisk will invite some Blue Moon forum members to a tour of the North stand development in the future? Or do the Open Doors Construction next year? https://opendoors.construction/

Many thanks to Women in Property North West for the opportunity to attend the site tour at the North Stand Extension project in Manchester.

As a local resident, I’ve watched the project’s progress daily from the outside, but it was incredibly insightful to gain an internal perspective and learn more about the plans, challenges, and the positive impact on the local community.

I was going to go, but I’ve not got a spare £895. :-(

We are delighted to announce Danny Wilson, Managing Director – Manchester City Operations, as a keynote for TheStadiumBusiness Design & Development Summit #TDS24.

With the club’s £300m expansion of City’s stadium well underway, Danny will share the evolution of Etihad Stadium and Campus, the club’s continued investments across this evolving destination and how a ‘fans first’ strategy is at the heart of all developments.

“Since 2008, City Football Group has overseen over £700million of investment in East Manchester,” explains Wilson. “And this expansion speaks to our ambition to develop a world-class entertainment destination at the Etihad Campus.”

The latest project will increase the stadium’s capacity to more than 60,000, and a new 3,000-capacity fan zone, club shop, 400-bed hotel, new club shop, and museum will further establish Manchester City’s matchday experience as one of the best in the world of sports.

The new North Stand sits opposite the recently opened Co-op Live arena, a joint venture between City Football Group and Oak View Group. Above the upper tier of the expanded stand, a sky bar and stadium roof walk will give fans a unique view of the pitch and Manchester’s skyline.

“This project has been designed with our fans at its heart and demonstrates our commitment to creating one of the most memorable fan experiences in world sport. Fans will have the opportunity to extend their match day by joining us at the new covered fan zone, visiting the museum, or staying at the hotel,” explains Wilson. “I look forward to sharing the project’s vision with international colleagues at this year’s Design & Development Summit.”

See who else will be joining us to explore next-gen spaces for sports and entertainment at #TDS24

Explore the future of stadium design with Danny and hundreds of other venue sector leaders, exclusively at #TDS24 at Emirates Old Trafford, Manchester, on December 2-4.
