'Care home pink' sums this up perfectly. I'm impressed with the way that the breeze block moves seamlessly to plasterboard in this shot. In fact, I almost didn't notice and had to study it carefully to see the join. I'm so glad that Queen Anne insisted on upgrading the serveries. Can't wait to see the bogs.

Wonder if the serving staff will be rigged out in maroon and care-home-pink outfits?

Cant believe they have used MDF on the lavatorium's panels I would have thought it would have been individual glass curtain's and gold taps

Truly world class. Cludgies to be proud of, etc etc etc.

I've just realised what the Jambo hordes remind me of now. Donald Trump. "We have the best toilets, nobody has ever seen toilets like these before. Amazing!"

It looked really good, much better than the photo. Was chatting to a guy coming off site, and he said that the insides are going to be absolutely stunning, at least the equal of anything in Scotland,*and the actual stand itself is quite breathtaking to sit in.*

More drugs. If you're used to a crumbling wooden asbestos stand then I suppose it would be breathtaking

An absolute replica of their 25 year old Wheatfield shed. Absolutely breathtaking

Are they installing washed out seating ? Is that the latest craze like denim ? The seats look like they have been in the sun for years, I wonder if they are recycled..............

The badges look honking on the seats

They've no taken the plastic bags off them yet lol, as if that's gonnas change things

Are they going to issue away fans protective glasses when they visit the erseholedome?

It's a serious question as I don't imagine many football fans in Scotland will have seen a one tier stand with shiny plastic seats and a bit white steel across the top of it.

I appreciate that their regular proclamations about it are giving the public fair warning but it could still cause a few medical emergencies when the sheer scale of this is finally revealed.

No wonder they're keeping the plastic bags on until the very end and are naming everything in Latin so as to keep it all secret until the big reveal.

The crests on the seats are looking nice and wonky.

Looks ready to host a game - just like the pink toilets.

Bit of a climbdown from 'world class' then...

[Iain G]

Away down in Gorgie is Tynecastle Park
With a "World Class" stand that is miles from the mark,
It's seats are still missing and it's leaking in parts,
Aye there’s nae other stand to compare with the Hearts'

H-E-A-R-T-S
If you cannae spell it then here’s what it says
Hearts Hearts poor delayed Hearts
It’s down at Tynecastle they bodge
The talk of dot net is it's not ready yet
While Anne Budge exploits them with pride
This is their story this is their song
Built by the Hearts it's sure to go wrong
Pies are for sale at Celtic, Killie and Hibs,
but way down in Gorgie they've all had their chips

Some souwester caps we can always supply,
or buy a Hearts brolly to keep your heid dry,
If we had the time we could hang all the doors,
but we'd have to speed up and complete some of the floors

We’ve raised architectural standards with our curtain wall,
But we've no stairwell handrails so we hope you don't fall,
The piazza is paved and in there's a shock,
We've constructed our badge out of old monoblock

[calumhibee1]

Seems to be dawning on some folk on kickback that they’ve been lied to again. The stadium apparently could have been ready for Kilmarnock but they didn’t want to risk it... yet it’s now Wednesday after the Killie game and they still haven’t fitted all the seats, the end of the actual stand structure still isn’t finished, dugouts aren’t in etc. They were never going to make the Kilmarnock game. Just like they were never going to make all the other deadlines they’ve given.

Will that be the way the office windows are lit once the stand's open? ie will you be able to see people working and assorted office furniture etc? I had thought the purpose of the glass curtain was to present a kind of seamless screen that you wouldn't actually be able to see through? That seemed to be what the original plans showed before they were scaled back:



This Jambo got a telling off for looking at the stand at night time, apparently the curtain wall magically appears in daylight !

Looks like hoops when lit from inside, such a design may have been more suitable in Glasgow's East End.

OK, can we put this one to bed once and for all?? As that pic shows there is NO form of curtain wall. The definition of curtain is 'a piece of suspended material forming a screen'. Now, that artist's impression shows just such a form of screen but as the photo shows there is no such thing in reality. It is, pure and simple, a set of office windows.

Despite this, Budge continues to wax lyrical about the curtain wall. Why is this? Are they planning to add one at a later date?

As others have pointed out, NONE of this would matter in the slightest had Hearts not made such a song and dance about 'the biggest glass curtain wall in Scottish football'. Indeed, had they not made such a song and dance about this stand we wouldn't have had this megathread on the subject.

Those pics showing the 'view' from behind the police control centre sum up what a desperately over-hyped structure this is.

Spot on; it's their own self-promotion and big team mentality which yet again makes them subject to ridicule. They always fail to deliver on their words, on and off the pitch.

Wow the pitch hasn't half gotten thinner! I guess they are trying hard to create a run off area to comply with European standards :\

What does it say above the badge on the wall? It's not very clear but the second word looks as if it might have four letters in it so I'm thinking maybe "Hogg"?

In construction / manufacturer technical speak what they have there would certainly be classed as a curtain wall system. It is a facade that supports nothing but it's own weight (and any loading placed on it from the wind etc) and is connected back to the primary structure.

What it isn't is the lovely architectural Planar glazing system clearly shown in their architectural images.
