Stadia

[petromax]

They are buildings of historic importance, the garden were not. They can have the insulation values uprated far more easily than brick block with landing protruding acts as heat sinks.

Both are historically important for their own reasons and if you think 9" or 13.5" solid brickwork is easy to upgrade thermally without disruption of historic interiors and at reasonable cost, then you know rather less about it than you think you do.

The stadium company would say that.

HOK were paid for an independent assessment and they gave it. They have no other interest other than not getting sued for bad advice

The Loop site is totally crap. A stadium needs a rapid transit rail station incorporated.

It does not. There are plenty without.

WHP can have all and funded out of public fund and all benefit.

Get Real!! Just exactly where will the money come from?

EFC and LFC need rethinks on where to their stadia. EFC, hopefully not in Kirkby.

Maybe they do and maybe it shouldn't, but who can afford hundreds of millions more than is feasible. Even if the city had the power to insist on new rail loops and extraordinary third party benefits, which it does not, absolutely NOTHING would get built on this basis.

Make a plan that works, is feasible and will get built or talk about it for the next decade or so instead.
