You can exhaust the rain with pumps and conduct it behind the tribunes.

Arsenal have removed that stat and it now states that the height of the new stadium will be 41.9 meters from pitch level to the top of the roof.

Oh and here is another one of their little construction pics for us all to marvel at.

The pics are stupidly small. Anyway the grounds coming on well with the roof looking around a 1/3 complete and the top tier almost fully in place.

I think Arsenal got incredibly lucky in being able to relocate so nearby into a large undeveloped area in what is still heavily built up urban London.What with all the buildings and development that will go around it, its going to be a great stadium.



On a different note, all 60,000 seats will be upholstered which is a nice touch.
The Arsenal seat.

one word, amazing.

been ages since i have seen how far this project has come, but yeh its amazing, didnt realise it was so close to Highbury, so aside from the sposored name of it 'Emirates Stadium', will it have another name aswell, a more traditional one? ie, Herbert Chapman Stadium, Tony Adams Arena, Arsene Wenger Park?

It would be a good idea, but as far as I know there is no other official name. Having said that its almost certain that it will be simply known as Ashburton Grove.

The lines shown take you from Finsbury Park into The City and vice versa in a north south direction.The nearest station would be Drayton Park but it doesnt go to Kings Cross. From what you say I suspect it isnt the same route you are using.
