Construction began on the 76,125-seat stadium in mid-1999 and official groundbreaking was held on August 17, 1999. </div> <bR> <div> INVESCO Field at Mile High is located in the vicinity of Mile High Stadium, just west of Interstate-25. The cost of the new stadium will be incurred by Broncos Owner and Chief Executive Officer Pat Bowlen and the taxpayers of the six-county area through a penny-per-$10 sales tax on retail goods. </div> <bR> <div> The site upon which Mile High Stadium currently stands will feature grass, trees and landscaped parking lots. The new facility will be highlighted by an emphasis on state-of-the-art technology, while maintaining the traditional aspects of Mile High Stadium that have given the Broncos a decided home field advantage over the years. Those features include the close proximity of the seats to the field, as well as steel treads and risers that can be used to create the same deafening roar that helped define Mile High Stadium. </div> <bR> <div> The stadium was designed and built by Turner/Empire/Alvarado Construction and HNTB Architects, in association with Fentress Bradburn Architects and Bertram A. Bruton Architects. Numerous Colorado companies and hundreds of professional designers, engineers and construction tradesmen were involved in the construction of the new state-of-the-art facility. </div> <bR> <div> The stadium includes 1.7 million square feet of space (approximately twice that of Mile High) with amenities such as wider concourses, wider seats, more restrooms, elevators, escalators and full-service accommodations for people with disabilities. </div> <div> denverbroncos.com</div> </td> </tr></table></body>
