The magnificent Allianz Arena is home to Bayern Munich, one of the biggest teams in Germany and the world. Opened in 2005, the Allianz became known for its illuminating exterior, the first of its kind in the world, and has the second-largest capacity in the whole of Germany (behind Borussia Dortmund’s Westfalenstadion / Signal Iduna Park). The last renovation that our stadium underwent was in 2015 which ruled that the limit was 75,000 fans for league games and 70,000 for other competitions (Champions League and cup competitions), but now it looks like the stadium is set for an increase in capacity:

In partnership with The Repository, every Monday, the Stark Community Foundation highlights positive events in our community. Here’s to Good News Monday!

The Golden Key Center for Exceptional Children is on its way to serve more local students with special needs with a $2.5 million renovation and expansion.

The Golden Key is a non-public, not-for-profit special needs school that provides quality education and intervention services to preschoolers through eighth graders with autism and other cognitive disabilities. Students from 13 of Stark County’s 18 school districts attend The Golden Key, but enrollment is limited due to available school space. The school is at maximum capacity with a growing waiting list of families who need its services, making this renovation and expansion project important to our community.

If the latest flurry of news around two dueling plans to fix New York’s Pennsylvania Station has left you scratching your head, you’re not alone. Various officials I have spoken with are also fuzzy on details.

The only thing everyone seems to know for certain is that nothing meaningful ever actually happens to improve North America’s busiest and most miserable train hub, despite decades of demands and promises. Hope has long gone to die on the 6:50 to Secaucus.

But now may actually be different.

why?

For starters, because a highly detailed and, at the moment, a clearly superior but unofficial proposal has suddenly emerged to challenge the one that the Metropolitan Transportation Authority has been slowly pulling together. At the very least, the new proposal, from a private infrastructure developer called ASTM North America, may be the disruption needed to get Albany moving.

OTTAWA –

More than four years after MPs moved out of Center Block on Parliament Hill for the decade-long renovation to the historic building, journalists got a behind-the-scenes look at the project’s progress Thursday.

The massive project is slated to run until 2031, costing between $4.5 and $5 billion, and is on track to be completed on time.

“This is the largest heritage rehabilitation project that’s ever taken place in Canada,” said Public Services and Procurement Canada assistant deputy minister Rob Wright on the tour.

“We have to balance restoring the heritage with universal accessibility, with sustainability, with meeting modern requirements of Parliament, and creating greater access for Canadians, and creating a more secure environment,” he added. “That’s a tall order”

“Working with the City of Vancouver is the absolute worst part of my job, by far,” Barzelai, who operates the Barzelai Building, told Global News in an interview Wednesday. “I deal with clients, I deal with trades, I deal with a lot of headaches. It’s nothing personal to the (city) staff, it’s the system. The system is broken.”

Barzelai said there are 10 steps that must be met before any work can even begin.

These steps include reports, inspections, permits, and surveys which, at minimum, will cost close to $10,000 he said.

Within five years of moving to Europe, businessman Douglas Loewe “fell in love” with Barcelona, ​​he said.

He decided to buy a home there, spending about 500,000 euros ($545,000) to purchase an apartment in the city’s famous Eixample neighborhood in 1999, the senior operating partner at Macquarie said.

But by 2017, Loewe felt the two-bedroom penthouse needed an overhaul.

He hired Matthew Coe, founder of the property investment firm
