Just been looking at the most recent photos.
What on earth were Archway Sheet Metal Works
thinking when the got up Levy's nose by refusing to move.
Probably misled by the silly rumours about bricks
and decided to dig in.

Looks to be ready for the Summer to me
2025.
Apparently the experts disagree.

If anyone's interested looks like they're doing a big lift on camera 2. The rakers onto the west side tree.

Or maybe they're just doing some more prep work on them.

First raker is up. First time to truly grasp the scale of the single tier, and it's so beautiful...

Amazing, and with the curvature it's going to be even higher in the middle section.

I work in construction and have been working on the players lodge at the training ground. I left that job on Friday and guess where I’m starting Monday .
Hopefully I’ll be able to give you guys the inside scoop on how the new stadium is progressing

Hopefully only 2 days lost to snow. A cold winter was what the club were dreading.

Find it quite funny that UK is in the Northern Europe and has been for thousands of years but you still can't handle 5 cm snow and minus degrees.

I try my best to update but at this stage I’m not sure I’ll add much more than the update videos/pictures that are posted by the official site.
Hopefully I’m still there closer to the finish date then I’ll be able to give a better assessment if it’s likely to be finished in time for next season

There's loads of work that can be done at 0ºC and with 2cm of lying snow, which is what we had in North London today. The main thing you can't do is to pour concrete and I think they're primarily busy with other operations now.

The dreaded "cold winter" you are concerned about would be 4 weeks of continuous hard frost (e.g., -5ºC), with no thaw during the days and 20cm of persistent lying snow. This is nothing.
