Populous beats rivals to design Milan’s ‘cathedral to football’

摘要

Populous has triumphed over its rivals to land the job of designing a new stadium for football teams AC Milan and FC Internazionale Milano. Populous’ project, called The Cathedral, was picked over US-Italian consortium Manica/Sportium’s proposal called Rings of Milano, which consisted of two rings symbolising the rival clubs being “united” in preserving the city’s history. Populous will now plan the revamp of the San Siro neighbourhood in the Italian city, currently home to the Meazza Stadium, better known as San Siro.
