Exactly. Calatrava himself rejected the idea of rebuilding the bowl, because its simplicity and minimalism fits the roof and its aesthetic standards. I don't like the idea of some modern stadiums looking like 90's malls or multipex cinemas and for sure I wouldn't like especially THIS one to look like the rest. Sometimes, less is more.

Ha! With Greece's debt, they may have to take that down and sell it for scrap iron.

I don't understand peoples attraction to this one, it's just a dingy old stadium with a funny looking roof tacked on, it only looks good when photographed at night.
