According to The Times Hub on the site of the collapsed Sport-concert complex are now planning to build the world’s largest ice arena, partly preserving the architectural appearance of the old building. We are talking about the preservation of architecture of vertical ribs along the perimeter of the entire complex.
The project area is 167 thousand square meters and a height of 49 meters. During the concert at the ice arena can accommodate up to 23 thousand spectators, and at hockey games — 21,5 thousand. VIPs will be provided with 1800 seats. Main grandstand is located on the 2nd, 3rd and 6th floors.
