Yes, it could happen! Although the project of a stadium for the University of Miami football team is only in its early stages, it seems that the Hurricanes' move out of Hard Rock Stadium will become a reality sooner or later anyway.Initially expected to stay within $350 million, eventually it consumed some $550 million. While impressive in size and helpful in securing the stadium’s 6th Super Bowl, the privately-funded project came at quite a price. Independent of the stadium construction, eight pillars were erected to support 17,000 tons of steel and cladding! With 58,000 m 2 of surface, the vast canopy is topped by four spires, each at 109 meters tall. In just 9 months one of the continent’s most spectacular roofs was built. While many fans were moved closer to the field and all received new seats for the 2015 NFL season, much greater alterations came in 2016. No longer two, this time four were delivered, each of a massive size (520 m 2). At the same time, upper corner sections were reduced to just several rows to make way for newer, much larger screens. Since there was no more need for the wide field, reconfiguration of lower stands was planned and carried out in 2015. However the largest changes came as Marlins left the stadium in 2011. In 2009-2010 similar change came on the southern end, leaving only the north one with its 1987-façade. In 2006-2007 two large pavilions were added to expand spectator/hospitality/office facilities on the sides. Not in capacity terms, but infrastructural ones. Both of the latter came as the stadium was changing.
In its initial layout the Miami stadium hosted three Super Bowl games (1989, 1995, 1999), later followed by the 20 editions. And, just as planned, MLB team Marlins moved in by 1993. Since Robbie was hopeful of drawing an MLB franchise to Miami, the stadium was built with field size able to accommodate baseball. Its signature feature? The 8 spiral ramps, two in each corner of the stadium. With two rings of general admission seating and over 200 private boxes, the stadium offered 75,000 seats. There, surrounded by massive parking sites, the desired stadium was built in 1987.
