North Stand Construction Discussion

[Gingers Dad]

To support your evidence I took this picture on the way home today from outside the Bank of England. Not the best picture but sure to bring a tier to a few people’s eyes!

The picture doesn’t do justice to the mark the redevelopment makes on the view/landscape already from so far away!

Someone on this thread will be reaching for the tissues.

When the South Stand was extended they added an additional small block of seats to the East and West. Is this not happening with the new North Stand? It will play havoc with my OCD is the two biggest stands are slightly lopsided.
