In the USA schools organized real competition for the construction of the most expensive and prestigious school stadium. After high school Allen, Texas spent $ 60 million on the construction of the stadium Eagle, other schools aim to break this record.
Eagle stadium has a capacity of 18 thousand people. It was opened in 2012. But now he can fade into the background, as management of Independent school district McKinney, also located in the state of Texas is going to allocate $ 70 million for the construction of the stadium.
The representative of one of three schools in McKinney who are planning to invest in the construction of a new stadium, Adam Blanchet does not hide the fact that between the schools rivalry. “I’m very proud and happy if it was in my neighborhood will be built the most expensive high school stadium in the country,” said the man.
In McKinney is home to 162 thousand inhabitants, where the average annual income is about 83 thousand dollars. Many people took the news about the construction of such an expensive stadium in a positive way. However, there are those who oppose the new project. However, the leadership of the school district believes that students deserve to have their own stadium.
The project will be implemented in the shortest time, however, contractors are not assured that there will be unforeseen circumstances that result in the construction of the stadium will take longer time. It should be noted that a similar fate has befallen several of Russian stadiums.
So, completion of the stadium “Zenit arena” in St. Petersburg was postponed again indefinitely. Stadium, a project that was launched in 2006, planned to implement back in 2009, but there were unexpected difficulties. In 2016 the company “Inzhtransstroy-SPb”, the General contractor of construction of the stadium “Zenit arena”, was asked to increase the estimate to 35.3 billion roubles. Later, the city authorities did not rule out that the state contract with the contractor may be terminated.
Not the best way things are and with the construction of the stadium in Samara. The project, which was launched in 2012, positioned as the biggest stadium in Russia. However, it soon became clear that the allocated funds for its construction are not enough. The construction was regularly slowed down and postponed indefinitely. The new date of completion of the stadium called the 2017-2018 year.
Meanwhile, another American school, Cathy stated that she is also involved in the “race of the stadiums.” The future stadium will be built in the suburbs of Houston. The contractor has started work. The capacity of the stadium will include 10 thousand people. The project is funded for 62,5 million dollars.
