New Amex Shots! - the best ones yet?

[Driver8]

The lovely shiny floors are on ALL the concourses, not just 1901. And no, they will not be covered with carpet.

Really? It looks just like the suspended floor in our office before they put the carpet down. Surely
they won't leave bare metal floors?

Looks like tiles to me...

Love seeing the beginnings of a pitch - amazing!

Especially if you are in the West Upper. Five flights of stairs may be a challenge.

only just really paid attention to it, but you can really see the under soil heating in the first pic!

I think one of the captions says irrigation system, odd as I thought it looked like heating too....

I love these shots and I'm so, so looking forward to it! But there's just one thing that bugs me - and has for a while - why is it shaped like a f*cking rugby ball?

 

[kevo]

Nice pics!! I have to say though, the sloping roof over the North and South stands does look pretty naff to me....

That's the only slight thing I don't like about it. Derby's Pride Park is similar and looks a bit odd. It's a shame they couldn't have made the West and the East the same height. Apart from that very minor gripe tho, it really does look absolutely fantastic.

Is that a Box for the tv companies between the West and North stands?

Police, stewarding & Ambulance

 

[Napper]

West upper. Pretty sure they said media are front rows right in the centre of the West Upper. You can see on the webcam this area is slighltly boxed off .

Maybe thats just radio journalists , can't recall the exact details

TV 100% West upper though

Martin Perry was rather proud of the shiny floors when we had a tour last year. When its all spic and span it'll look like polished MARBLE.

Won't that get rather slippery when the bogs overflow?
