The New Falcons Stadium looks pretty sweet.

Here's the Wikipedia link to the New 49ers Stadium:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Clara_Stadium

Interestingly this was originally going to be a ground share between the 49ers and the Oakland Raiders who would be secondary tenants. The Raiders have however decided not to join the 49ers at the ground which means they'll be staying at the Oakland Colisseum for the time being, which is the last remaining dual-use stadium in American sport and regularly voted as both the worst NFL and MLB stadium.

One thing that always strikes me about American stadiums is they either look completely kick-ass or just... dull. Look at the 49ers stadium. I'm sure it'll have all the mod cons, but it just looks very bland.
