The Proposed East Stand
The key part of the concept plan is a new East Stand, almost mirroring the Paul Kelly Stand, which was completed in 2002.

If the proposed development goes ahead, the new East Stand will have:
- Three levels, making it lower than the Paul Kelly Stand
- One level (included in the 3 levels) of hospitality seating, including more club lounges and more Lancaster Reserve type seating, which was oversubscribed when the Paul Kelly Stand seats went on sale
- Seating for 16, 672 people, two thirds of them covered
- Great views of the ground, from anywhere in the stand
- Additional car parks, under and around the stand
- An add on option of 10, 000 square metres of office space, providing it is commercially viable
- The eastern lighting towers relocated to the front of the stand roof
- A Wilsons Road frontage, taking up most of the existing Wilsons Road car parking area and bringing the front of the stand closer to the road.
