Plans for the demolition of the gym on the occasion of the conversion of the stadium have questioned the continued existence of the glass mosaic since 1998. After the glass mosaic was listed in 2003, it was removed from 2005 to 2006 before the gymnasium was demolished and received a new place on the stadium forecourt at the south entrance (Ferdinand-Wilhelm-Fricke-Weg) on a newly created angle support. On April 27, 2006, the Mayor of Hanover Herbert Schmalstieg made the ceremonial public approval of the Glassmosaic Sport at his new location in good time before the 2006 football World Championship in 2006. The glass mosaic has a glass area of almost 200 m² and is one of the most important works of building -bound art in Germany.
