The Buffalo Bills stadium of the future is here!
The team released its much-anticipated designs Thursday morning, which will be built across the road from its current facility in Orchard Park.
Via BuffasloBills.com:
“The exterior stadium image highlights the team’s desire for a visual identity that reflects some of the historical architecture of Buffalo, while also delivering a modern appearance.
Featured in the inside bowl rendering is a stacked seating design, which will help to rain crowd noise down onto the playing field. In addition to the stacked seating that will provide protection from the elements, extensive radiant heating will be in place to enhance fan comfort.
Tapping into the fan base’s strong familial culture and generosity, the new stadium will have a clear focus on being functional and comfortable to honor the loyalty and pride the Bills Mafia hold for their team and where they’ll soon play when this project is completed.”
