Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium

In March 2007 this was just a piece of earth, just over two years later it's a 45 940 person capacity stadium that's damn impressive and got my blood pressure pumping. It's a fine piece of architecture and, according to external contractor, a specialist in stadium security and safety, Craig Miller (pictured), "this is the best he's come across in 25 years of eventing".
The stadium has 30 so-called vomatoriums, which should facilitate an evacuation in 6.5 minutes, which is expected to be world record. The current world record is 8 minutes.
The overall cost of the stadium is estimated at R1,7-billion.
Without have had a chance to research the position of the stadium, my guess is that it is ideally placed in an area that desperately needs the impetus and stimulation.
I'm impressed, but then again perhaps I'm just being emotional tonight: Viva 2010! (And I'm doing my best to imagine a crowd of 46 000 with vuvazela's...)
