Draconator Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 (edited) @BLeonard had started a thread, but the pictures were kinda small. So he emailed them to me and I put them on a Google Drive link and made the link sharable. There's ain't pretty drawings. More engineering-type drawings, but the Reddit poster that BLeonard saw these on, the poster said these were the final drawings. (Then quickly that poster deleted the drawings from Reddit.)

Sierra Foothills Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Very cool! Just a few structural and architecturals but still. Looks like the stadium will be more on the north-south axis than the old one. Two tunnels instead of one... still at the same general end. Nice looking place... thanks for posting! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Stampede Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Looks pretty much like the renderings released. It’s going to be a beautiful stadium. Still hate it. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still hate it. I understand what you mean, but that building may just be the largest anchor on the planet, grounding the Bills in Buffalo for the next 2 decades minimum. I like the design enough, but I love what it represents. 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing too exciting though Agreed the ugly glass design does nothing for me because it doesn’t fit into Western New York. I think if we are going cheaper why have any lights or a replay board? Make it like old Chicago Cubs Wrigley Field where Buffalo Bills have to play at 1:00 every Sunday at the new Bills stadium. Since the Bills are keeping it simple make it historic hand operated scoreboard like 1940’s Buffalo Civic Stadium. No replay boards and no stadium lights. That makes the stadium experience unique and stand out. Nothing we are doing is buzz worthy. I guarantee if the Bills said we are building a historic football stadium with no replay boards all hand operated with no stadium lights fans would come from all over like fans go to Chicago Cubs Wrigley Field in my opinion.

As I’ve been saying all along, the ‘renderings’ we’ve been shown to date are nothing more than rendered views of the 3D model from which they’ll construct the stadium. The ‘drawings’ posted here are the technical views of that exact same model. I use drawings in quotes because nothing is actually drawn anymore. We simply ask the software to show us views of the model in plan, elevation and cross section. I’ll study them more later on my desktop but what I’m most interested in are what appear to be floor plan views of the locker room and concourse levels. It’s there that fans can see the support spaces being incorporated into the facility (restrooms, concessions, etc). PS: Thanks for sharing! Very cool. I’m a bit shocked these were released. They RARELY are. Tons of liability and proprietary design being exposed by the architects here. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCal Deek Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 It’s rather unfortunate that these views do not include a cross section where you’d be able to see the actual extent of the roof overhang above the seating levels below. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo Wrigley Field got lights in 1988. You're asking the Bills to do what the Cubs don't do anymore....for almost 40 years. So basically if we have the #1 seed in the conference, we would have to play on the road for the AFCCG because those games are late afternoon/night.
