DannyelBrazil Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 In these latest photos it looks quite a bit better than. First thing I thought was that it reminds me of Rome's Olimpico, except for the missing track. The relative "smallness" can be a good thing if it creates an intimate atmosphere. Can't edit the post but I meant that it looks better than I thought initially. The stadium gives an airy and light impression. I got your point and I agree. With pics from weeks ago, the stadium looked really chaotic, indeed, it was chaotic, many chairs were not aligned (and still some are not yet). Well you put all chairs in line and you clean the concrete, the visual get much better. I insist in waiting the match Brazil vs. England to cast a final opinion on the works. So far, I'm pretty happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Citius Altius Fortius Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 mhh, you can't find any sign of the place of the 2016 cauldron yet (on the pics)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stryker Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 Why doesn't the organizing committe just add a few temporary works to the Maria Lenk Aquatic Center and then construct a temporary venue for the water polo competition like London did? It would seem much more cost effective rather than building a new aquatic center for the Olympics even if it only meant to be temporary and dismantled later.

paul Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 Here's last time Maracana was preparing for a World Cup, the old bones have not changed. Too bad 200,000 can't get in this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intoronto Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 @Brazilians what is that swimming facility right off Maracana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyelBrazil Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 @Brazilians what is that swimming facility right off Maracana A swimming venue that will demolished for the World Cup, together with the Track & Field stadium. Maracana was a multi-sports complex. Still, some swimmers are training in this pool, but they will be moved to Maria Lenk Aquatic Center in Barra. Footage of the entrance of the public in the event test today, they are broadcasting right now and the illumination used in the event is as beautiful as some Olympic event. Amazing!!! As soon as I get pics, I'll post here. Here's last time Maracana was preparing for a World Cup, the old bones have not changed. Too bad 200,000 can't get in this time. What you mean?

DannyelBrazil Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 More at night WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Before questions, there is nobody seated in the left side, that's why both LCD big screens are turned off to save energy - ecofriendly stuff... AND THIS IS NOT THE OFFICIAL RE-OPENING. JUST AN TEST EVENT WITH THE WORKERS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 It looks good with people in there and with lights on. I think it was cool that 200,000 people crammed in there for the last work cup final...too bad only 80,000 can come now. I can’t imagine standing for a game but it might be wild fun. Gtting a Lakers vibe with the lights! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gtting a Lakers vibe with the lights! Modern times bring some good thigns, unfortunatelly the 180,000+ attendance days in Maracana were a truly chaos. I myself attended a match Flamengo vs. Botafogo in my childhood that was a nightmare. ahahaha, Lakers time, I liked it! More pics: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
