Nice, they should use a similar design for the new ground in Vilnius.

This is not a stadium of Lechii Gdansk, but Lechia Gdansk. I know you don't write polish too good, but it's a name you should know ;)
Architects: Rhode + Kellermann + Wawrowsky
cost: app. 800mln zl = 320mln $ = 210mln € (or so)

And here is a really exciting and impressive pic from the construction area:

Great project :cheers:

http://img135.imageshack.us/img135/8403/19291176su5.jpg

Very good project!! :cheers:

yup, looks great

very very good..! xD

Thats impressive!

the question is: will it be done until 2012?:D

i wish they put the metal holding up the amber colour cladding on the inside of the area. A smooth exterior would be much better and look more like an Amber.

Very good! :cheers:

http://bi.gazeta.pl/im/0/4905/z4905100X.jpg

If the area looked as smooth as this without the metal it'd be much nicer. Such a lazy design IMO. I cannot believe nobody objected to the Eiffel tower under the cladding.

Update:

:: The detailed building plan of the stadium has finished, stadium will look like in the above renders

:: The comunication and the sorrounding area plan has changed slightly

:: Construction status: Land is cleared for consturction

Nice! There's nothing more to say!

Nice and modern but kind of generic and dull.

Allianz arena -> Soccer City -> Baltic Arena : Like this new stadium design direction.
Allthough I think that Soccer City and Baltic Arena is better looking than Allianz. Lets vote?

Like I said before the metal cladding support structure ruin it, they should have hidden it - with all the metal it looks Frakenstein-ish

So any news on when the construction is expected to commence?:)

^^
At present he lasts for leveling the land and geological works. Recently the first stage of the tender for earthworks ended, now analysis lasts for them. The end of the tender is planned for the December and then they will move earthworks at construction.
Recently tests of the model of the stadium were carried out in the wind tunnel, they came out well and perhaps reducing building costs will be possible.

very nice :okay:

new photos:

July 31 BIEG-2012 receives the stadium project and will be submitted for the construction licence :)
Probably also new visualisations of the stadium, more details will appear. It is necessary to wait:)

wow, that's just awsome, beautiful stadium

Will Polish league teams be able to fill these stadiums?

This stadium is for local team Lechia Gdańsk, atm they're playing on old stadium with capacity ~10.000 and it's full almost every week (when Lechia play at home) with like 80% of season tickets. On Baltic Arena it should be like 20.000 of season tickets or more we'll see but I think there will be like 25.000-30.000 fans on every match, ofc it also depends on how Lechia is going to play but there're alot of fans which are gonna be there no matter if Lechia play good or not...

And can start acknowledging Baltic Arena as U/C :cheers:

148 million euros for 44K stadia????? I can't believe it. Soooo expensive...

It's a very nice stadium, congrats. They should hurry up though with the construction.

Not sure it's so much expensive

This could be funny if Germany would play in Gdansk.
From 1793 to 1806, from 1815 to 1918 and from 1939 to 1945, Gdansk was a german city (Dantzig).
When the german anthem would be played, there would be an emotion to the public.
The building of the stadium is beginning.
Good luck for Gdansk.

Good luck for Gdansk. I dont think it would be a big deal. It is a Polish city populated by Polish people. The Germans only occupied it through their evil and backhanded tactics. All ancient history now.

There are always emotions when Poland is playing Germany, but there wouldn't any bigger or smaller emotion to the public whether they would play in Gdansk, Wroclaw or Warsaw.

German minority in Gdansk nowdays is very small, Polish-German international relations are very good and we are all in EU :cheers:

The color is more lighter in the model of the stadium than it is for real life. It looks better with light orange than it does with darker orange.

It seems (from photos) progress is more advanced, then in Wroclaw right now.
Good tempo.

What? works are just starting???

Euro 2012 will be in danger if organization isn't taken more seriously... :(

Axelferis: No worries. As many people said here - everything is due to schedule. Here is no delays, no "in danger". It would be helpful to belive in this if you see monthly progress at construction site.

You do not know what you are talking about. The stadium is in a fast pace and there is no danger.

I would be more afraid of Lviv. He actually works stood.

We have 2009
Euro is in 2012
most of stadium will be completed in 2010/2011 (for example Wroclaw stadium, which is also in first phase of construction will be finished in the beginning of 2011)

I can insure you that there is no danger in Poland.

ok but when is the "deadline" scheduled by UEFA?

I hope projects in Poland will rise normally because they are very good !

Yes there is. I can't tell exactly what date it is, but i can insure you that all stadium projects will be finished much much before this deadline.

And also this deadline is mostly for cities to test all before tournament. You know, to sign and seal all of issues before Euro2012 begin.

the deadline is a year before the championships...June 2011

Why ? Danzig is a 19th century German name for the city and there are no more Germans there so what would be the point ? Poland is no longer partitioned, Prussia is long dead. Why not 17th century Dutch version Dantzick ?

They could have used a Latin name for the city - Gedania but that also sounds pretty weird as nobody uses Latin anymore.

Gdansk is perfect, closest approximation of the original city name "urbs Gyddanyzc" from AD 997 - coming from Old Polish 'Gdania" - marsh, wetland.

Maybe it's a bit tough to pronounce but the name itself sounds pretty sharp :)

The progress of this stadium is just growing and growing, good job Gdansk ;)

Halfway from historical center to port, about 5 km. The stadium will be 45 meters high and should be clearly visible from the sea when coming from Stockholm :cheers:

Agreed, the pace is excellent:)

^^ I am just shocked! In one month they are practically half done with the foundations! If only we Ukrainians could build things (Or stadiums) so quickly :D

I tried to spot the stadium when I was at Westerplatte two days ago but I didn't succeed. It was probably too early yet.

^^ If you managed to spot 8 blue cranes that means you saw it, you just didn't notice it :)

oh, did I? cheers, mate. you're a smart guy.

^^ Well I don't know IF you saw the cranes or not, but that's all what Im contributing ;)

That's just awesome progress, I mean they ain't wastin any time are they!

Will there be any video boards in this stadium? I can't imagine a new stadium without video boards but I don't see any on the render of the interior just posted.

^^

dont't know if it's the final version but for sure there will be some video boards...

http://i36.tinypic.com/rqzq61.jpg

I dont see screens as a necessity, but as a nice addition, and i guess they should be included when they're building a new stadium. Your doubt regarding if there will be screens based on renditions to me is rediculous. How one can draw any definitive conslusions based on what the stadion might look like besides a general outer and inner design is beyond me.

^^ Yea, that one is better :D

Yeah, that was the best movie showing visualisations of polish stadiums until Legia stadium movie :)

The material used for the elevation of the stadium in Gdansk will either make it or break it. Also, can anyone tell me if the buildings that appear around the stadium in early visualizations be built as well?

That I know: not before Euro2012

Today :)

WOOOOOW!!! Amazing. I believe this will be the order of the Polish stadium (From most likely to finish first, to last)

1. Poznan
2. Gdansk
3. Krakow
4. Warsaw
5. Chrozow
6. Wroclaw

Gdańsk won't be ready before Kraków. Stadium in Kraków should be built at the end of June 2010 while Gdańsk at the beginnning of 2011.

Is this going to be Lechia Gdansk's home stadium for every match or only for important matches?

for every match

These are going to be the new tram stops by Baltic Arena. They look cool and resemble the stadium :)

I think there is too much pictures in this tread. Do not paste all photos you have, please! Paste a couple of photos and give a link to the rest.

It's request for AdrianSuvalkai and polac especially.

These tram stops by BA - just great! :)

I don't see why there is to complain here. Personally, I prefer to see all the photos on this thread (I don't like hopping through websites and stuff).

its just your opinion no one else complained
keep the pictures the way they wer

I also think you post too many pictures in a row. It's better to choose few from different angles and paste link to the rest!

I mean those from stadium. Look at the previous page. Few similar angles in a row while just one would be enough.

quit your whinning. If you want to post the way you like go and take pictures and than post it. Dont like it? dont look at them. Next thing you know no one wil be posting pictures because of people like you. I would rather have too many pictures than none, so please... everyone who posts pictures dont listen to the two people who dont matter.

I agree. Besides, this is a forum website :)

2 or 3 photos + copy/paste link to the rest of them, instead of posting 435455 same photos in 4 diff. threads...

Omg, another whiner, everyone, just post however they want, personally, i don't care how you do it, just so that this conversation could come to an end about how to post the photos properly.

It's time to change the topic title to GDANSK - PGE Arena Gdansk ( 44,000) - EURO 2012.

New name for the next five years: PGE Arena Gdańsk

It's time to change the topic title to GDANSK - PGE Arena Gdansk ( 44,000) - EURO 2012.

Are you serious???? Baltic Arena is an awesome name and should be the name of the stadium. Now some other Baltic country is going to take that name like Sweden or Norway because of its bid for Euro 2016 :(

The stadium may have a problem to earn money for itself in the future so that's the reason.

And PGE Arena sounds really bad in my opinion, like we didn't have word 'stadium' :ohno:

ps. Norway doesn't have access to Baltic see ;)

It does sound bad. Lotos Arena would have been a better name in my opinion. But i guess it was a good decision regarding money. Lets hope the logo and motto wont be disappointing like the name chosen :(

And i just put Norway because they could have been sneaky or something :lol:

I doubt Norway would name a stadium "Baltic Arena." That's like Poland naming a stadium "North Sea Park", or something....

IMHO, "Baltic Arena" will remain as a second, unofficial name for the stadium.
The name was/is just too good, to let it fade away.
So althought PGE logo looks quite good on the stadium itself, the name is not very catchy, and I think only official releases will use PGE Arena name.

I wish they (PGE) have chosen "PGE Baltic Arena" as the name.
Everybody could be satisfied.

^^ yea, PGE Baltic Arena, I like it. Adding a commercial item to the name that has already become recognisable seems better than creating a completly new one. Shame they haven't come upon the same idea.

Ah yes PGE Baltic Arena would be a much better name than this plain original one :(

We will just have to wait until 2015 for another name change. Hopefully by then Gdansk will realize that Baltic Arena is the perfect name for this stadium.

What does PGE stand for??

PGE Group is a state-owned power company and the largest power producing company in Poland. PGE Group operates two large lignite mines and more than 40 power stations

What is this?

Probably the ending of air trunk.

I'm not really sure but it look's like one of theese "ground" entrances. Lowest level will be the underground level.

20.01.2011 - end of the build

It looks like they might finish it earlier.

If the construction company does finish it earlier, they get a reward. That what usually happens.

6 months in 6 seconds :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fwi28uEgYyE&feature=player_embedded

Any information on like the roof or something (Like what type of steel will they use, where will they make the steel etc.)?

looks like 1st tier is a lil bit too steep.
whats the c value at the 2nd tier.

They are already putting up the tiers? Wow work is increasing fast :)

They are already putting up the tiers? Wow work is increasing fast :)

They started to put up the tiers like 1 month ago, or something.

looks like 1st tier is a lil bit too steep.

I wouldn't say that they are steep. If you look at some of the stadiums in Spain for instance, you will see that the tiers are amazingly steep (Even like on the Santiago Burnabeu and the Camp Nauo stadium the tiers are steep).

1st tier is 30° (Bernabeu is 24°)
2nd tier is 36°
its very steep

and why is the steepness a problem? It only means better views....Also allows the 2nd tier to be closer to the pitch.

1st tier is 30° (Bernabeu is 24°)
2nd tier is 36°
its very steep
Where did you get this info?

^^ Sercan do you know the steepness of Mestalla? Now that is steep. I find atmosphere better in the steep stadiums, so you can only imagine what the green and white fans will do inside here! :cheers:

Steepness is not always good. :)
You just need a stadiums with a c value of at least C60 (EURO 2016 C90).
Kayseri's stadium has got 1st tier ~30° and 2nd tier ~35° and they have massive problem with the view.

At mestalla the 1st tier is not so steep ;)
Actually most stadiums do not have a steep stand, because otherwise the sightlines at the 2nd tier are bad.

Measured at skecthup.

BTW do have a good C value its also good to have a longer distance between stands and pitch.


So IF there is a problem (whcih i actually don't think, because as far as i know a german company controlled all EURO 2012 stadiums) they yould made the 1st tier maybe 24°.

Today:

How the name of the stadium might look:
http://img.trojmiasto.pl/zdj/fotki/28700/z28771.jpg

1st tier is 30° (Bernabeu is 24°)
2nd tier is 36°
its very steep

^^
1st level of girders - 27°
2nd level of girders - 31°
3rd level of girders - 35°

^^ Is that it? If not then can you at least give us a link to the website where you found the photo(s). Thanks.
