HKS recently began a renovation of Toyota Stadium in Frisco, Texas, near its home in the Dallas Metroplex. The three-year,$182 million project is meant to modernize the 20,500-capacity design (originally opened by the firmin 2005) for fans of FC Dallas, who had affectionately referred to it as "The Oven" due to the high heat indexes registered during the summer and its below-grade pitch placement.A roof canopy will thus be added to provide fans and players with shade during matches. Other improvements include new entrances and state-of-the-art suites. The renovation will take shape in phases beginning at the east side so as to allow the club to continue playing home games during construction. HKS expects a 2028 completion. A new office development designed by Gensler will follow on the plot adjacent to the west side of the stadium. Both Gensler andFoster + Partners have released their own significant soocer stadium designs since the beginning of the year.Image rendering courte...
