BC Place roof to get overhaul
Courtesy Vancouver Province:
B.C. Lions president and CEO Bob Ackles said Thursday that it’s too early to tell what kind of short-term impact the replacement of the B.C. Place Stadium roof might have on his club, but the announcement is welcomed.
“Any improvements they make are going to have a positive effect on the B.C. Lions,” he said. “There will likely be some inconveniences, but it’s going to be a really positive thing.”
Crown corporation PavCo, which operates B.C. Place, has confirmed that a new roof will be among several upgrades to the 25-year-old, 60,000-seat stadium, and that it will be in place for the 2010 Winter Olympics.
