Columbus
Crew Stadium
Columbus, Ohio
The new Major League Soccer stadium
for the Columbus Crew which consists of 22,485 seats (expandable
to 40,000 seats). The project has a prescription turf playing
field and 100,000 SF of support buildings. Korda designed
site lighting, stadium lighting, and security systems for
the stadium area. Phased construction was required for this
fast track project, which was completed by the stipulated
opening day.
Site development includes circulation roads, 800-car parking
lot, drainage and storm water detention. Relocation of an existing
48” storm sewer which was directly beneath the playing field
was required. This same sewer is the outlet for storm water,
which is detained in a dry basin to the west of the stadium
prior to release. |
