Ok so the 17m is just for planning. Because this whole precinct including the stadium upgrade and new arena as described in the article and renderings would be 500m at least.

It looks fantastic and is what the dragons absolutely need. 7 games here and 5 at Allianz in the future.

Though a concern is it doesn’t look like a capacity increase. I think 23k at least would be needed.

Hopefully we see this move full steam ahead and they don’t dumb it down
Direct quote from the Planning Minister two pages back was that capacity will increase.

So on Christchurch, agree re the seats missing at one end. Looks unfinished?

I'm sure they wouldn't be this stupid but the roof does look very low. Low enough for a bomb to hit the scaffolding? Maybe it just looks that way.

I believe because that's where the stage will be for concerts. The idea is that you can then put temporary seating there for big sporting events. I'm actually a fan of the idea because it makes smaller crowds look that little bit bigger than just having 30k seats.
The concept is sound, I just hope that they've built the stand in a way that the temporary seating can be added/removed relatively quickly and without huge expense.
