Looking forward to seeing how this is lit at night - should be really spectacular from south of the Torrens.

The contrasts over this time are spectacular at AO. VERY impressive standium - most be close to 10 floors high at he back. Will be on my list to go to the cricket when I come over next.
It is appearing as a stadium with some style rather than just a seating venue.
ADELAIDE - TOWARDS A GREATER CITY SKYLINE
This.
I go past every fortnight or so after work and have a look, and love watching the progress.
The Southern Stand is going to be ginormous!
I'm glad it's looking good from the perspective of someone who hasn't seen it for a while, and you can see the upcoming amazingness of it.
Sometimes the whole thing wants me to
because of the Adelaideian attitude to the whole project

Try and take Dangerfields head / the writing out the equation and you can see just how huge the roof on the southern stand is going to be! Not sure how soon is 'soon' to when this comes out but should be great! I'll try and get some pics up when the virtual venue does come out.

Article in Computerworld about a new venue management system for Adelaide Oval.
Adelaide Oval to introduce NCR POS reporting system
When Adelaide Oval re-opens in October 2013 for the cricket season, a new venue management system will provide stadium staff with sales information from every point of sale (POS) device.
The Venue Manager system, provided by NCR, is designed to help staff report, analyse and forecast sales leading to better inventory control and cash management.
According to Oval CEO Andrew Daniels, the system will help fulfil its commitment to provide “exceptional service” to punters while increasing efficiency, reducing waste and costs.
.......
NCR has also worked with Suncorp and Metricon stadiums in Queensland on a loaded ticket offering. The system allows fans to preload their match tickets or membership cards with money to be used to buy merchandise, food or drinks.

Nope, I was stuffed after that. Parked my car around the corner from pennington Tce, so I had a fair push up the hill (I'm in a wheelchair). Also had tennis and a gym session before, so I was looking forward to an afternoon nap

Assuming those lights hanging off the front of the Western are temporary to assist with workplace safety during the build?

Looks like they've made even more progress on the roof structure in just a day

The Crows have uploaded construction pics from the other day, nothing much new but a good view from different aspects of the ground.

I'm more excited about the view from the plaza at the moment.
Until the roof goes on, not really bothered, but the Memorial Drive view is starting to look very swish.
