Probably need to get some pitch lighting in there somehow, so there will be floodlights ringing the top.
That design will change several times before it gets built, if indeed it ever gets built..

Yes, I thought about lighting, but I have no idea how that gets constructed nowadays. I still think of tall poles with lighting squares on them. Perhaps that the lighting is high up in the construction and not shielded to the outside, e.g. to the bat habitat in Brompton cemetery, is part of the planning report that seems to be referred to in the article. As it's probably hundreds of pages of documents, if not thousands, I won't try to read any of them.
It'll be an intense planning process, for sure, and the design may well change if several successive applications are refused permission.

I have no problem with the pitch being at street level, and I don't even mind a tall stadium. It's a stadium, it's meant to be big. What I wonder about is why there is any need to further increase the stadium's height, seemingly even without some kind of retractable roof construction, by means of all the stuff on top.
