The first concept sketches for Manchester City's proposed North Stand expansion and new fan zone at the Etihad Stadium have been revealed today.
In December, City announced plans to begin feasibility studies into increasing the Etihad's capacity to over 60,000 and making the stadium an entertainment destination all year round. Fans and members of the public were invited to give their thoughts on the adding of thousands more seats in the North Stand, as well as the building of a new City Square fan zone, a museum and a hotel within the development.
Now, the club have unveiled concept designs for how the expanded North Stand could look, as well as the covered fan zone and other facilities, with a new phase of fan and community consultation now beginning.
