    New stadium plans go on display

    Plans for Liverpool Football Club's new stadium and the regeneration of Stanley Park are to go on show.
    Residents are being asked for their views on the proposals for the park, which houses the Isla Gladstone Conservatory.

    Liverpool FC's new owners George Gillett and Tom Hicks agreed to make funds available to build the new stadium as part of the purchasing deal.

    The exhibition is at the Vernon Sangster Sports Centre.

    The Stanley Park work is part of wider plans for New Anfield and Breckfield.

    The £215m project is expected to bring new community facilities, jobs, homes and business to the area.

    'Major works'

    The exhibition will be open on 26 and 27 February.

    Councillor Berni Turner said: "This will be a chance for residents and others to see what the Stanley Park of the 21st Century will look like.

    "It involves major works in restoring the park to a standard which will make it one of the leading recreational spaces in the region."

    The wider regeneration project will be one of the largest urban parks restoration schemes in the country.

    It involves the repair and restoration of the park's structures including bridges, walls, pavilions and the park lodge.

    The new 60,000-seater stadium includes a Community Partnership Centre, a replacement for the Vernon Sangster Sports Centre.

    It is due to open at the start of the 2009/10 Premiership season.

        A fella on RAWK spoke to the architect and who said..

        A) The original stadium design is pretty much exactly how it will be.

        B) There are no plans for a single tier Kop.

        How depressing.

            I think 60,000 is the right size.

              we have 45000 now and if we go too big will we fill it all the time i know that you can argue we can get 76000 for big games mancs europe etc but if average was 60000 what would the atmosphere be like with that many empty seats also if you go past a certain point we have to build more roads etc to allow access and the costs rocket.

              so i would like 65000 but 60000 will be ok.

                  60,000 is spot on for not only the stadium but for the amounts of traffic that will be heading through the area on match days. Any more and the congestion would be terrible.

                              If you get a chance to chat with the architect really push him on the issue of a single stand Kop. Is it going to happen ? How many seats will have ?

                              Also, try and get him to compare our new stadium with another current stadium in Europe...Benfica's stadium ? Man City's ?
