A series of spectacular drawings show that the new Old Trafford would be expelled from the iconic and iconic home site of more than a century of United. Its own version lined with Wembley Way trees would extend from beyond the current statue of the Holy Trinity for the existing Old Trafford with a land that is currently used for a parking lot and a load terminal behind the end of Stretford that comes to play.
On the one hand, the bowl -shaped place would be extended to the channel, with a series of protected bridges that allow fans to cross a cavernous sand.
One of the towers, which extends above a new two -level Stretford end aimed at increasing the volume, presents a visualization platform without being from the heart suspended in the air. Throughout both sides there are three levels with a large number of corporate offers.
A video narrated by Gary Neville accompanies the images. “Where the workers once grafted a new milestone will arise,” says the former captain. 'A new theater, so that dreams come to life'.
