We're trying to find something that will merge tradition with the history of the Green Bay Packers.
Many teams are already in new stadiums, or have plans on the drawing board.
The Packers hope to be playing in a renovated or new stadium by 2003. Harlan said he was pleased with both sketches. Camden Yards is generally acknowledged to be the first of the new breed of stadiums that combine the old-time feel and sight lines of the old venues in concert with newer amenities such as luxury suites and larger concession and restroom areas. The two sketches were prepared by Ellerbe Becket, a nationally known architectural firm that maintains a sports architecture business in Kansas City, Mo. Harlan termed the two sketches preliminary and said they had not even been shown to members of the Packers' board of directors. We're making changes to the sketches now, and we hope that in the next two months we can go to the board and decide what to do.
