    Not sure on dates but I recall the North Stand (at Easter Road) costing a similar amount to their three "stands" put together.

    The North and South stands were built in 1995 and were virtually complete at the start of the 95-96 season. The West Stand was built in 2001.

    It was built as part of Lloyd George's 'homes fit for heroes' pledge.

    It was their welcome home present.

    I think a second planning permission was launched to build them another one after World War II as a big maroon thank you.....still pending though.
