We all know the new stadium being made for the San Francisco 49ers. The modern stadium is being built in the city of Santa Clara. The new stadium should is being prepared to be ready for the 2015 season. Expanding the current stadium of the team is the initial plan in 2006. This is the area where the Candlestick stadium, the current stadium where every 49ers ticket is used, is located. The plans fell when neither the 49ers nor the city of SanFrancisco were able to get into an agreement.
Not only the team was affected with the change in the plans. The City of San Francisco is bidding for a spot to be one of the hosts for the 2016 Olympics. The San Francisco stadium for the 49ers would have been their bid. Since the plans fell, so did the chance to host the Olympics. A legendary player of the 49ers, Joe Montana, was one of the major constituent pushing for the Olympics bid. Also, the loyal fans and patrons of the 49ers tickets around the area were enraged about the decision to move. Losing their favorite team was not something they were prepared for.
The team has agreed that they would not change the name of the team. They would still be known as the San Francisco 49ers. The location for the 49ers ticket to be used is the one that would change only.
There are many things that the fans of the team can look forward to to their new stadium. The stadium was designed to have a large lower bowl that can accommodate over two thirds of the 75000 seating capacity. This ergonomic layout was designed for to make things more accessible. The impact to the environment is considered greatly when planning the stadium. Solar panels and a green roof are to be installed in the stadium. Even the water to be used in maintaining the natural turf being used and the water used in the lavatories would ne from recycled water.
The team would benefit from the tarnsistion to the new stadium. The stadium is accessible using the major public transit in the area. To address the issues with global warming, the stadium was designed with the environment in mind. There were feelings that were hurt due to the planned transition. However, the 49ers will always remain in the hearts of the people of San Francisco.
