Great video 📹

Looks like the bathroom pods are being placed on the floors of the hotel for final positioning later these are made off-site to speed up the installation later, wrapped in plastic.

I’m in absolute awe of the draftsmanship that planned this and the logistics and timescale of the actual building process. The pyramids are so simple by comparison 🙄

Where is the museum and fan shop going to be situated?

I presume work continues every day now! Does the new Fan Zone actually go underneath the hotel? I’ll be really interested in the eventual testing process of the terracing … a few thousand fans bouncing up and down to test the safety / stability😳

Thanks for the update. Great to see the terracing expanding. Yes, the framing too near the balcony. East Wing near it's height and West Wing catching up. They'll need all those cranes. 👷👷🚧🚧.

The back of the new stand looks really close to the hotel

Thanks Colin,it seems the old dock wall will be a chalenge to make neat again.there are many parts which could be trip hazzards there are at least 5 different types of paving all about a meter wide close to each other. I wouldnt fance sitting on a cold concrete step in the winter not good for the johnny giles. If smooth concrete it would also be slippery if raining.i can see some ajustments being made over time

Most pathetic stadium project I’ve seen. If the design of the roof wasn’t awful enough, the build quality is shite at best and that’s without even discussing how our blue nose neighbours can fill a fucking dock, pile it, build a whole stadium and surrounding area in the same time it’s taken these muppets to put this debacle up

Getting ready for the conforama with style. Might need to save some money for the new starting 11 also.

Will there be a 'Grand opening' event ?

As a man city fan I must say this stadium looks good much better then goodison.

Why was the stadium chosen to be built there

Thanks, Colin. It looks great in early morning sunshine. You were struggling to remember "Granite Coping Stones" and "Mooring Bollard". We all have those moments. PoI's: 1) At 3:54 mins, the "office water bottle" that has made its way into the gap between the old dock wall Coping Stones and the East Plaza Granite Setts, demonstrates the size and depth of that gap currently before the'll fill it.stonework. 2) At 6:04 mins, IF the one uncovered panel is as it seems, then they've gone for a dull metal finish not the same material as used for the barrel-cladding, which is bright, shiny anodised aluminium. That's a pity. : I thought it would present a 'hall of mirrors' effect to people walking along the South Concourse. I hope it's just a trick of the light for now. 3) At 8:33 mins, we can see clearly the base plates for the future executive chairs. they look like pairs of short vertical pipes in this shot. 4) At 9:11 mins, we can see clearly that they have installed a 3 person desk in each dug out, for monitors, for staff to analyse live feed videos, I presume. They will have a front and overhead cover to screen the monitors from the bright light(s) and prying eyes. 5) at 11:45 mins: yes, the plans states Composite Wood-effect decking. 6) Just to be pedantic, at 12:30 mins, both the steps ON the terracing and the terracing itself will remain as concrete. They have yet to install railings alongside the steps on the terracing. 7) At 12:33 ins, the benches don't all seem to be in a perfectly straight line. 8) At 13:42 mins, we can see how much more substantial the foundations are for the North Perimeter Base Wall at the West End, basically from the end of the overhang westwards. We can expect to see further developments there including wind baffles, covers, gates and roller shutters. 9) At 13:45 mins, you were correct to point out the dark-grey finish to the concrete roof, even if it wasn't the final coat there. If you look at the entrance way to the plant area you can see the sharp line of colour differential between the concrete roof of the north stand and the floor of the NW plant area. 10) Great shadows of the large "+ shaped" wind baffles along the edge of the South Concourse, which cast onto the Everton Way. It mkaes it look as though there are more "+ shapes" there, when there aren't. 11) At 16:08 mins, those pallets on the Mezzanine MIGHT be some of the Composite Decking planks. 12) At 18:10 mins, we can see they're about to start laying the granite setts in the SE corner of the East Plaza. Fingers crossed for this evening that the injury-ridden team can still get the job done against the Toon. UTFT.

The metal stuff sicking out from the old dock wall is called a bolkard ..its used to tie ships

Great video as always, nice and clear out there roday

Great video mate 👍♥️

Great request by John Jones. Great zooming. Looks horrible but also clear now what will happen and how it will look.👍

0:14 Hi Colin, Can you ask the people you know at Laing O'rourke if that fence above the barrel cladding on the East & West stand is staying for good? I always thought it was temporary for the safety of the roofers. And if it is staying, tell them to take it down as it looks dreadful 😂 especially from ground level haha.

Hi Colin great video as usual ! Just wondering you said that nothing else is happening on the west terrace steps, but surely for h& safety reasons there will have to be some sort of hand rails going across & down 🤔👍 Cheers Dave C

Nice job Colin. I hope the club change their mind and put the holy trinity and Dixie statues at BMD. Dixie on the West, looking across the river, trinity on the fan plaza. It feels right.

Thank you. 😁

Would you consider doing an evening flyaround to show how it looks lit up a bit?

Welcome back, Colin. I hope you're refreshed. PoI's: 1) At 1:31 mins, I'd suggest that they have changed the plan for the dividing wall between the East Plaza and the Northern Walkway. I don't think there can be any form of bench there and as they have laid the granite setts right up to the concrete wall, they'll not be lining that face with the blue bricks seen on the two-tiered benches. I think it'll probably end up having a railing or balustrade along the top of the wall. 2) At 2:30 mins, the East Stand Main Portal doors have been in situ for a few weeks. 3) At 2:45 - 4:55 mins, we can see that they're definitely laying bricks that have the front face glazed in blue (a ceramic face, like a tile). The mortar is the same colour as the mortar used in the main facades. There look to be at least 3 different shades of blue used. We can see that the water-effect flags will be laid butting up to the base of the two-tiered bench to hide the bottom layers of red-faced bricks. 4) At 5:42 mins, I'm still somewhat perplexed by the change in plan for the uppermost Accessibility Platform on the Upper Tier of the West Stand. They have installed a full row of seats. In the approved plans, like the other Accessibility Platforms, it just had a series of paired Companion Seats. Worth a closer look to see if they're extra and shoehorned in or it's a new usage of that area? 5) At 6:36 mins, we can see they've instilled the remaining dugout seats but we still await what the little shallow platforms in each dugout are for. In visualisations there seem to be 2 shrouded desks, perhaps for Staff to be running monitors and videos with the shroud shielding them from the glare of the spotlights. 6) At 6:36 mins, it looks as though they're installing base plates for the future installation of the Executive Seats between the dark barriers. 7) At 7:23 mins, we can see that they have progressed with the installation of the concrete base for the North Perimeter wall at the West end. Keep an eye for developments there as the perimeter wall my well incorporate the erection of the Wind-Baffles and Cover, plus the same sort of Steel structures for roller-shutters and gates as seen at the south end of the mezzanine. The digging out and initial concrete pour there is quite different and much more sbstantial than the rest of the North Perimeter base wall. 8) At 7:23 mins, the diesel/oil slick from Sandon Dock is a right pain as, with Sod's Law perfect timing, it spoils the effect of what should be a clearer water channel by now. 9) At 7:23 mins, we can see that the northern end of the West Quay has been pretty well-cleaned up before they asphalt it there. Where the red-and-white lorry sits is where they will store the UV Light Arrays when not in use on the pitch. 10) At 7:23 mins, we can see that the balustrade on the West Quay in front of the DNOC/Media Complex, has longer posts than the rest of the length. The ground is lower there currently and I'd expect them to be leveling it up in due course. 11) At 9:11 mins, the two 10m wide openings are for Roller-Shutter doors. The 5m wide opening nearest the mezzanine is for 2 hinged gates. All of the shutters'gates will be in dark-grey aluminium with 50% porosity. 12) At 10:03 mins, my GUESS is that the big wind-baffle structures are going to have imagery incorporated into them as it looks as though they haven't applied the proposed imagery to the baffles around the trees. It's possible, therefore, that the frame inserts will not appear until the customisation phase. 13) At 11:04, I couldn't see what the contractor up the green cherry-picker was doing to the supports for the paneling on the east end of the Viewing Gallery. 14) At 14:00, it's a shame that they have not applied imagery incorporated into the fencing along the North perimeter, as was intimated in the plans.

God it feels like ages!... But great video. Shooting up faster than utd concede goals...

thank you

Do you know when the main stand lower seats are being replaced by any chance boss 👍

Looks bloody awful.

Why don't LFC build a multi storey car park where the current car park is holding 10/12 thousand cars ideally for match day's and events outside side of football

Góc quay này thấy sân liver rồi thích quá

why is there 1 random bit with blue bricks, how cool would it of looked if the whole brick work was is blue espescially next to the black

Excellent buddy

It will be quite a climb to the back seats of the new extension ... I suspect I'll require a sherpa with oxygen!

are there 2 lift shafts going up on the right hand side?

Welcome back Colin, where’s the tan

Seems to be an expensive bit of work just for the derby......

Biggest thing is the roof assume thet be starting that soon will take 6 months for the room alone

It’s the worst construction work ever!

Sure it's been asked and answered before but I assume the numbers above access points will be illuminated?

That hotel soon gone up 😮

If City dropped their Ticket prices.. I would go to the Etihad..

Just need water wash for a dirty part brick.

Thanks Colin, great to see the new tiles and the soil layer going on. Those groundworks guys laying the paving are going to be up against the clock, still a bit too do.

Hi Colin, Could you follow the old dock walls right around at the front ajacent to the blue tiles and at the river side as well.There are some areas of damage and I see thay have used flags and bricks in some areas.Can you do a zoom around the full old dock wall?

There’s an apartment complex across the street from my house that took half the time to build than this stand…..

sorry too say but liverpool have really dropped a bollock on this one. liverpool and man united should have the best grounds in england if not europe, and this is coming from a city fan, you had such an opportunity here..with everton moving to their new ground next season you should of just ignored your pride, moved across the park for a couple of seasons, flattened anfield and built something spectacular.

there still at it no window sills cladding benches. shocking. never seen anything like it.. good video thanks.

A useful round-up tour. Thanks for that.

Thank you for the video. Is it my imagination or is there some pointing work missing on the brickwork below the top window (the ones without the sills) on the end by the KD stand

Thank You for the mention CP Overview and great to see you back, I be going in the ground next week now as nothing has changed cladding wise underneath sections near SKD stand side as I have a few contacts letting me know and showing me pictures of how it looks and nothing changed so deffo next week I be going in as it's expected cladding main stand side is rumoured to be finally completed mate, welcome back mate, hope you had a great holiday 👍
