+x+x+xSo not only do you get to sit a mile from the action you also get some massive columns in the way. And in indoor mode if you are anywhere but the middle bay your orientation is toward the far corners of the performance area. That is hands down the shittest multi-useless stadium proposal I have seen. There is a video on the article. The rails for the shutters are retractable and fold up for football use. +x+xSo not only do you get to sit a mile from the action you also get some massive columns in the way.

For all of those Canberra sporting events with over 23k in attendance. May as well weld those garage doors shut and let people enjoy craning their necks for those indoor events. Over engineered rubbish looking for a problem to solve. I'd have a partially retractable pitch and a wall to close over that section so the seating can stay in place, or moved for flat floor events like expos. The sightlines for the top tier do seem out of whack to have a stage where the seating would be, unless it's raked even higher. Automated removable seating is actually pretty achievable with the right engeneering, even plush interior designs. The idea definitely has merit, but I think it needs a bit more work.
