New Colts Stadium

It was annouced last week that The City of Indianapolis had reached a deal with the Indianapolis Colts on the construction of a new $500 million, 63,000-seat, retractable-roof stadium to replace the 20 year old, 57,000 seat RCA Dome, which is the smallest in the NFL. Despite my strong opposition to the proposed funding for the stadium, legalized slot machines in Marion County, I do like the design.



For some alternative designs for a Colts Stadium, be sure to check out the designs of the students of the Ball State University, College of Architecture and Planning's Indianapolis Center. I got to view three dimensional models and renderings of theoretical stadiums in their Indianapolis Stadium Redevelopment District Gallery Exhibit during a recent visit to the center. If you're in downtown Indy, stop in and visit them at 22 E. Washington St.
