EwingCole to design new PNC Field stadium

EwingCole has received an architectural and engineering design contract from the Lackawanna County in the US for renovations to PNC Field.

The estimated cost for the renovations to the 22-year-old stadium were $28.7m.

EwingCole will receive a base payment of $2.5m for the new design, which will feature seats sloping to field level and an open concourse around the park.

Lackawanna County has placed a request for proposal for the design deal in 24 November 2010.

Ewing Cole had provided conceptual renderings and three assessments of the existing stadium since 1994.
