attacks the upper deck of Tiger
Stadium. Defenders
of Tiger Stadium have charged that deliberate lack of maintenance
was allowed to occur so as to bolster the claim that the
Stadium needed to be replaced.

Tiger
Stadium
The
argument for building a new stadium, as put forth by the Tiger
management, claimed that decades of decay weakened an already
inadequate structure such that the stadium could not be renovated
to include luxury box suites they claimed to be necessary to
be fiscally competitive.
Opponents,
led by the Tiger Stadium Fan Club, instead found the stadium
to be structurally overbuilt. To demonstrate their point,
they presented their Cochrane Plan, designed by husband
and wife architects John and Judy Davids. It clearly demonstrated
that luxury seating could be economically integrated into the
existing structure.
