Craigieboy Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 You can see already that the stand won't look like the 'office block' in the artists impression. It looks really classy in real life. I like the frosted panels hiding the floor etc. I'm looking forward to seeing the whole lot panneled and the temporary fixings removed. The scale of it is also impressive. Driving past when it was the metal structure made it appear quite small to me. Now that the glass is going in it shows just how long/curved it is. Add to that the marroon panels on the extreme side sections and it'll be a brilliant facade. Nicer than most clubs in Scotland. To disagree would just be silly.

151 Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 I must be the only person who thinks the artists impression actually looks a bit better than the pics of how the glass is so far.

troonmaroon Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 It will look like the artists impression - but in glass and metal. Thomaso, do you know why the top thin row of panes are grey too? I'm aware the others are to hide the floors but looking at the pics, I'd have thought the top ones might have been clear to improve the view for folk in the 'skyline' restaurant. How high does the top edge sit above the finished floor level? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armageddon Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Photo courtesy of the 'Hearts Main Stand Photo Group' Facebook page. I know it's been said by others, but the reflection of the flats/skyline is sensational and will make the stand blend into the area. Hibs were right! FLATS FLATS GLORIOUS FLATS!

cheetah Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 (edited) The opaque glass panels mask the floor slab edges inside the building.

Craigieboy Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Would be silly to spend many millions on a new stand and not maintain it properly. It would Dave. But lots of glass buildings up the town do it. Neglect to save money. The buildings look grubby and frankly would be more attractive if they were just made out of stone.

Bazzas right boot Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 If we are getting marron trees, we should paint the grass as well. As for the window cleaning, they should collect the slavers and tears from jkb and with that a free weekly wash will bd possible. Someone mentioned self cleaning glass, was that a wind up? If not are we using it? The glad debate was back a fair bit. A window cleaner Could easily charge about ?4-500 quid for that per week. I have shops under my contract with about 6 windows getting charged about ?50/?60 a month for a bi- monthly clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
