I've been told it's a diving board, and it's part of the new North stand, match day, experience for next season.

They should have built 5 a side pitches on top of the hotel and museum side.Not tacky ones. Decent ones with fancy lights. Adds to the football theme.
Aerial night shots of a game being played at the Etihad and 2 street games on top of the hotels.
Stone is a bit boring.

Meticulously planned and executed load transfers enable Manchester City’s stadium expansion
Upwardly extending the North Stand of Manchester City’s Etihad Stadium requires a series of meticulously planned and executed load transfers.www.newcivilengineer.com
Thanks for posting.
From New Civil Engineer above.
"We are doing one [pair of rafters] every four days because there’s a lot of preparation to detach it from the tension cables above,” Kasher says. “We’ve got the pitch for six weeks and then we have to give it back to the groundsman to prepare for next season. So, over six weeks, we’ve got to strip the unbraced bays, get six of these pairs of rafters out and perform all demolition on the pitch so we can remove the pieces.”

No probs. As you say.
Lucky to find it on Linkedin.
It's fair to say we now all know how the old roof is being taken apart, and how the new roof is being supported.

Oasis playing Blue Moon a la Brian May at the Queen’s jubilee when the result of the charges is announced?

Watching the latest clips and seeing the installation of a new big screen , it's BS that the rags and scousers cant install one , wasn't it a prerequisite to VAR being rolled out ?
More like masters getting thrown off it
All that building work for the same price as Antony, Rasmus, sancho and slab headYou will enjoy reading this. Along with some interesting pictures.

Well I've been told they are running a zip line from it to the car park for the early leavers.
