I like it okay. It's MASSIVE when you see it in person. The only thing I don't like is how it dominates the front of the skyline from the highway (I-70). It kind of hides the towers behind it.

It actually looks pretty nice in real life though. It's really more brick colored than that rendering shows.

Don't let the rendering fool you...once you see it in person it is much better. The light color tone of the brick in the rendering is way off. It's much darker than that. The stadium is basically a larger version of Conseco. I just hope they don't put that emblem right above the Lucas Oil sign.

generic = common. I don't recall a football stadium ever looking like that.

It's really cool. What I like best about it is that it looks like a giant old fashioned gym with those windows and that red brick.

I like the new building, The defending SB champs Colts deserve a new building and now they got one. It will definitely hold more than 57 thousand people. And its similar to Conseco as well. also looks like America Airlines Center in Dallas too

I think it's a great stadium. Being from Indianapolis I can tell you that it really looks great up close. The pictures don't do it justice. Plus there are a lot more then just colts games there. If you go on sportevents.com (http://www.sportevents.com) they have everything there. It really is a nice stadium. Cost way too much money though.

I smell spam.
