SoCal Deek Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 (edited) Gunner or Brit: Have either of you been by the re-purposed/renovated Highbury Stadium, which I understand was the home of Arsenal before The Emirates? The photos I’ve seen of the transformation look incredible! For Bills fans it’d be like The Rockpile but on a much more ambitious scale. I urge everyone to google it.

Thanks Brit….check it out online it even on google maps. It’s just a block from The Emirates and has been completely transformed. In Buffalo they only saved an archway from the old stadium but in London they were able to keep entire sections and convert it to what appears to be apartments and offices. There are Bills fans that would die to live in an apartment that looked into the field of Rich Stadium! And talk about a money maker on game day if it was a hotel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we go to London for the game a day early we're planning on going to visit a few of the London stadiums so will add Highbury to the list if we do. I suppose a lot will depend on what the expected structural damage after demolition of most of the stadium as to whether what could be left to be used as part of future building? My soccer team have moved to a new stadium the couple of years and they've only been allowed to keep a small part of the terrace of the old stadium which will be incorporated into gardens where new housing is being built on the site. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been to a party in one of the plush duplexes in there and it is stunning. The reason it was retained was because it had to be. The East and West stand facades were both Grade II listed. I don't know if there are similar concepts in the US but in the UK buildings of particular historical or architectural significance can be given "listed status" which means they are protected from development. So they retained the stand facades and developed around it. The pitch is a communal gardens. The Emirates is a comfortable place to watch football. The most leg room of any stadium in the country, padded seats, it is plush, it is modern, it is comfy. It doesn't have the stunning modernity of the Tottenham Stadium, but it's a great venue. But it can never replace Highbury in my opinion. When I remember my first game there and coming up the steps from the concourse to the stand and the green of the pitch emerging into view it still gives me goosebumps and I am generally an emotional vacuum! Special place. It was like no other ground. You couldn't be in any other ground when you were there. The modern stadiums are all a bit too ubiquitous for my liking. The other thing Highbury had is it is in a residential street. You could have been a street away and had no idea. Then you just turned a corner and there it was.

We had the same ‘turn the corner’ experience walking up to Craven Cottage. And then filing out with all the fans after the match, down these little row house lined streets, heading for the pubs and the tube stations was really great!
