SANTA CLARA -- After soliciting the opinions of numerous architects and civil engineers, the 49ers found there is no reasonable way to provide shade for those who sit in the sunny seats on the east side of Levi’s Stadium.
“We can’t add shade,” team president Al Guido said on the 49ers Insider Podcast. “It’s not possible.”
The 49ers have investigated all solutions to provide relief from the heat at Levi’s Stadium, Guido said. But the design of the stadium, along with FAA regulations, makes all possible renovations or construction impractical.
“What I can tell the fans is we’re committed to making their experience as best as it possibly can,” Guido said.
