Santiago Bernabeu Stadium will be renovated

Real Madrid will soon begin a great reform of the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium. The aim is to bring the white coliseum to the twenty-first century demands, including a new facade, a shopping center and a roof covering the stadium.

Only a few economic details impede that the works have already begun. The city council has given its approval, but still have to specify the amount to be paid by the Real Madrid for the city for use of urban areas that are not its property. According to sources from Real Madrid, the project's economic impact could be around 200 million euros. The idea is that the works will be ready, or at least well underway in June 2013.

The epicenter of the project would be placed in the esplanade between the stadium and the Paseo de la Castellana Street, where would build the new mall. The retractable roof will be transparent and initially, will move from north to south, with an estimated budget of 30 million euros.
