Besides enhancing the roof over the stands of the Mineirao Stadium. The lower tier should get an enhancement. There is an empty gap in the seating bowl between the red individual seating and the playing area. I saw a similar situation at the Maracana Stadium before it had a renovation for the 2007 Pan Am Games.

This design already fills the gap that exist currently. The rest is empty, because the stands wouldn't fit in corners. And I don't see any space there to make it rotterdam alike (which is still not a long-term solution for a stadium refurbished in 2013)...

Jim856796 · February 14th, 2009, 10:56 AM

Corners? I don't see any corners in the seating bowl. The stadium is an oval.

Chris00 · February 16th, 2009, 04:23 PM

It looks quite nice.

xilenosky · February 16th, 2009, 08:21 PM

The stadium is beautiful, nevertheless they him do not go to do many refreshments to what it is today, comparing other renders of stadiums.

Salu2.

João Paulo · February 16th, 2009, 08:23 PM

I like this stadium.

lvmagic · February 20th, 2009, 07:22 PM

The stadium itself won't be that different (except for the cover and the field lowering, which are not easy things).

But its surroundings look amazing! Thousand times better than today... That will make the difference!

why do all brazilian stadiums have those stpid running tracks, even after reconstruction.
no mdern football stadtium should have that.

ESMAwar · May 23rd, 2009, 04:34 PM

I did not understand your point. What are you calling red individual seating and where is that "empty gap"?

With the reconstruction the running track will be removed.
You can't see it in those pictures.

I don't like the project at all. I hate an oval ground for football. It's ugly and not suitable for footabll match. But I like it oval or round in exterior facase. So oval or round stadium and rectangular pitch are the perfect combination in terms of stadium beauty.

The grey concrete section in the stadium is where the empty gap is:

Chris00 · May 25th, 2009, 02:52 PM

But the proposal presented shows that those gaps are filled. The pitch will be lowered and the lower tier redesigned in a sort of more rectangular than circular shape. The first picture shows this very well, notice how the upper tier and the lower one have a different curvature.

zyclope · May 26th, 2009, 01:56 AM

this so called "empty gap" is the standing area. Some years ago this area was closed for the public, but now is opened again.

Jim856796 · May 28th, 2009, 09:29 AM

As far as I'm concerned, i dislike standing areas in all stadiums. They are a waste of space. I would like to see the field slightly lowered, the standing area filled in with more seats and the lower bowl redesigned to accommodate two floors of luxury boxes. I don't need a "rectangular" lower tier as well as a rectangular roof extension, that would totally ruin the look of the stadium. However, if the stadium is renovated, it would look a lot like a "carbon copy" of Maracana Stadium.

Jim856796 · June 30th, 2009, 08:49 PM

Plus the Mimeirinho Gymnasium should also get a renovation and there are four floors of parking (?) under the stadium.

leomarques · August 22nd, 2009, 08:51 PM

-The project has been modified. Stadium costs will drop by half.

-Works start February 2010
