WOW! Amazing, I mean, just tremendous! Excellent pictures!

Great shots!
Will look even cooler when the stadium is jam packed this fall. Wow! That's pretty soon!
Keep the picture's coming! :clap::clap::clap:
 



Marvelous!!! :clap:

Ya know what's really sad, I've seen pictures from every angle of this place and I still want to see more :D
 

Exactly, Foster!! No matter how many pictures and videos I see I just keep wanting more and more!

These pictures are absolutely amazing. I sure hope we can have ones just like it this fall with a ful stadium, team or band on the field, etc. Can you even imagine how sweet pics like that will be?!?!

Thanks JPIIGopher for those amazing pics!
 

These truly are exceptional photos of the stadium!!!!:eek::clap: Thanks JP!!!!

As someone else has already said, It'll be even better when the place is filled up!!!
 




The maroon on the home seats doesn't match the maroon on the visitor seats...

J/k, those pictures are seriously awesome! It seems like overhead pictures convey a better sense of just how damn big our new digs are.
 

Exclesior!

My hype level for this stadium has reached critical mass.
 

It is amazing how close these "real" images are from the early computer animations envisioning a completed brickhouse! And, unlike some situations, the only differences are actually improvements instead of cut backs.

It's just the angle that the pictures were taken.....they do match each other.

No doubt. I had to look very closely to determine these were actual photos and not computer-generated images.
 




Great pics. Could someone tell me why we could't bulldoze the Station 19 building again?? Seems so out of place in the first pic. That area could be very useful for pregame activies... or a new basketball practice facility.
 

I believe Station 19 is protected as it's an historical building as one of the last old-time firehouses in Minneapolis. Looking at the photo again, I noticed that the lot on which Station 19 sits is in the shape of a football. Nice touch.
 

Correct. Station 19 is in the National Register of Historic Places. I can't imagine how much red tape would be involved in trying to get rid of it.

Wow, all I can say is Wow! I hadn't noticed that but what an awesome little detail to be incorporated into this whole project.

I think it's on the National Historical Registry.
 

I say we take station 19 off the registry and replace it with William's Arena.
 


End zones

Everything looks awesome, I can't wait to get in there. Is it me or does the end zone maroon and gold look different? Kind of like the maroon and gold of some 80's or 90' gopher fb uni's?
 

I don't know if Station 19 is on it, but buildings can still be razed if they are on the National Register of Historic Places. You just have to jump through a few more legal hoops.

Maybe they could move it. But god knows what that would cost or where they'd put it. :rolleyes:
