Exclusive Photos – A phoenix rising, a house of steel and 60,000 Celtic dreams

McCann he rode the winds of change
And the things he brought will long remain
A phoenix rising, a house of steel
And 60,000 Celtic dreams.

Yesterday on Celtic Shorts we published exclusive photographs of Celtic Park in 1993 when seats had to be added to the Jungle. Jump forward a few years and the vision of Fergus McCann’s vision for a new Paradise was coming together.

Enjoy these new photographs of the North Stand rising and opening with the first supporters taking their seats.

Tom Grant’s photos 

More exclusive photos – all taken by the former Celtic Stadium Director Tom Grant and given to us to share with the Celtic support – will appear on Celtic Shorts tomorrow.
