Naghshe jahan stadium progress

[Mr.Click]

According to Wikipedia:
Colosseum
"The Colosseum or Coliseum, also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre is an elliptical amphIitheatre in the centre of the city of Rome, Italy. Built of concrete and stone, it was the largest amphitheatre of the Roman Empire, and is considered one of the greatest works of Roman architecture and engineering. It is the largest amphitheatre in the world.The Colosseum could hold, it is estimated, between 50,000 and 80,000 spectators...."

that means, nearly 2000 years ago the Roman built the greatest structure on its time in 10 years, then made modifications to it in a period of 15 years. It held 50-80,000 people and still standing!!
I think that is very sad fact to know!

Funny and sad..

Having 10 average privately owned stadiums is better than 1 world class megastadium in the long term.

that is what i mean, maybe the use of the word world class wasn't appropriate. I was just trying to make the point that it is important how our stadiums look and what oppurtunities they can provide.

What's the status on this? How can a renovation take 5 years? I read somewhere it's supposed to be finished in mid February 2015, is it true?

Fixed it for you.

With oil prices being so low, don't expect this project to be over until at least 2030.

[Camran khan]

What's the latest update?

Azadi Stadium took 3 years to finish, compare that to these new arenas

i think it's rather the high theft prices than the low oil prices.

As far as I know, they havent build a single decent stadium in 36 years to match that, have they??

Yes they have, Sahand Stadium:

And Ghadir Stadium (haven't been on this stadium though)

I understand Nagshe Jahan stadium is perhaps used as an ancient Roman wreckage for tourist purpose by now! Now that's what I call a flexible marketing strategy

From Wikipedia
"In 1974, Zohreh Malileh Farshid, one of Iran's first and youngest female architects designed the Ahvaz Sports Complex.[1] Her wish was to have it ready for Ahvaz to host the 1984 Summer Olympics. god bless the Shah!!!"

Not only there hasn't been any progress, but two of the shades drooped down causing a lot of damage to parts of the stadiums. But who cares in IR, someone with a high school education is probably managing the project with his neighbor Akhund.

Is there any chance of Azadi Stadium being upgraded? Azadi needs renovation badly IMO.
