Was it not mentioned somewhere on this thread (not even going to attempt to find it) that the one in the picture isn't the original one and is Infact a newly laid piece, whereas the original is still in it's original place within the stand elsewhere? Pretty sure the two are actually quite different when images are put side by side too. Not to detract from the mosaic in the picture above which is itself also a great part of the new stand.

JALBO Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Popped over to the shop today, so a few from round and about the plaza. I do think the plaza signs need to go, and be replaced with something a bit classier. Sorry - no shots from inside the shop, but it's big - I would say double the size of the one in the Wheatfield. The ticket office appears to be relocating to the new shop too. Makes sense. Lots of people hanging out around the stairs. Made me think that the bar might do well with benches/tables or whatever outside on nice summer days like today. Have to say the stand looks quite stunning under clear skies. Interesting - the club have called the bar/shop area "The Gorgie Corner". A nice touch, that might work well - entrance to the Gorgie Suite just out of shot on the left, the bar straight ahead, and the shop on the right. Not sure if it's possible or not, but creating access to the Museum from here would make sense. A bit of signage needed. Internally, the bar and shop don't have suspended ceilings, so the services are visible. Not sure if this an intentional 'industrial' look, or if ceiling tiles are to follow. Some sort of canopy going over the entrance to the nursery. I'm not sure if this was on the original plans or not? As far as I could see, internally things seemed to be well advance. Obviously landscaping is last on the list..... And the obligatory shot...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Diez Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Great pics Jalbo. We’re going to be extremely proud of this when it’s finished.
