Everton Stadium’s architect Dan Meis has proclaimed that fans will be “part of the game” in a way that they’re not at so many new grounds when the Blues move into their future home on the banks of the Mersey.
This week, Meis made an emotional return to Merseyside to check on construction progress at Bramley-Moore Dock and, given recent events, it was a landmark visit for him.
Since he last crossed the Atlantic to be here, the skeletons of the stands that will forge Everton’s 52,888 capacity successor to Goodison Park have sprung up, adding an exciting fresh dimension to the panoramic views of Liverpool’s waterfront and while they’re the physical embodiment of his own creations, even Meis himself is taken aback to see their growth up close.
