The Dallas Cowboys new stadium will be open in 2009.The retractable roof stadium will include some of the same features of Texas Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys for the past 35 years. The new stadium will seat approximately 80,000 but can be expanded to up to 100,000 for larger events and since Super Bowl XLV Is Coming To North Texas it should be able to accomodate the huge crowd. The NFL recently awarded The Cowboys New Stadium the 2011 Super Bowl.
The Cowboys stadium will have three distinct arches spanning the length of the stadium, a hole in the roof when the dome is open and open-air end zone plazas, which can give the stadium an outdoor feel. There will be a canted exterior wall with an 86-foot high glass curtain-wall surface. A signature element for the new stadium is the 365-day a year entry, framing in glass the future Pro Shop, Dallas Cowboy Hall of Fame and ticket office.
There will be huge video screens on each side of the stadium for the fans viewing pleasure. Expect several stadium hotels to pop up near the new stadium and we'll be sure to make a list of hotels.
