Presenting the new Las Vegas Athletics baseball stadium.
The Armadillo! Pretty darn cool. Opening in 2028.
Planned to be the new Vegas home of Oakland's Athletics Major League Baseball team, the stadium is being created in collaboration with engineering company HNTB and will be situated on a 9-acre (3.6-hectare) site on Las Vegas Boulevard, between Tropicana Avenue and Reno Avenue.
Its design brings to mind Foster + Partners' somewhat similar SEC Armadillo – apparently the humble mammal has inspired more buildings than we'd realized – and actually offers a practical benefit. Its five overlapping shells, which are meant to resemble baseball pennants (team flags), will be positioned to mitigate any sunlight glare for the baseball players, while at the same time allowing indirect natural light to permeate through its northern-oriented clerestory windows. It will also be fronted by the world's largest cable net glass wall, which will use high tension cables to hold the glazing in place.
