Hibernian have renamed the East stand of Easter Road as the 'Pat Stanton Stand' in honour of one of their greatest sons.
A boyhood Hibee, Stanton made his debut at 19 and went on to make 617 appearances during a 13-year stay, scoring 78 goals - one of which was the opener as Hibs won the League Cup in 1972, defeating Celtic.
The Pat Stanton Stand will "serve as a lasting tribute to his achievements and legacy, inspiring future players and supporters for many years to come." said chairman, Ian Gordon.
The official unveiling will take place on Wednesday, 9 July ahead of Hibs' anniversary match with Rot-Weiss Essen.

Youngsters Dean Cleland, Lewis Gillie, and Jacob MacIntyre all completed 90 minutes, with under-18 player of the year Cleland coming closest to a goal in the behind-closed-doors game.

Scotland internationals Greg Taylor (left), Lawrence Shankland (centre) & Allan Campbell (right) are all set to become free agents
BBC Sport has taken a look at which players will be free agents on 1 July.
The majority of major football leagues run from late summer to late spring, with pre-season in June and July. Therefore, contracts across most divisions typically expire at 23:59 on 30 June each year.
Those whose contracts are expiring but have already agreed transfers to new clubs are not included, as they will not become free agents.
Some Scottish Premiership contracts expire on 31 May rather than 30 June - the below players either already are or will become free agents.
Aberdeen: Tom Ritchie
Celtic: Greg Taylor
Dundee: Scott Fraser, Antonio Portales, Joe Shaughnessy
Dundee United: David Babunksi, Allan Campbell, Lewis Moult, Bryan Mwangi
Falkirk: N/A
Hearts: Jorge Grant, Barrie McKay, Lawrence Shankland
Tavares' Hibs exit 'makes sense' for player & clubpublished at 09:31 BST 30 June

Jair Tavares leaving Hibernian "makes sense" for both the player and the Leith club, says head coach David Gray.
The 24-year-old winger, who joined from Benfica three years ago, has departed by mutual consent.
The Portuguese forward failed to nail down a first-team place at Easter Road, making 41 appearances since 2022 and scoring just twice.
He spent last season on loan at fellow Scottish Premiership side Motherwell, where he also struggled to make an impact.
On his exit, Hibs boss Gray said: "Jair hasn't had as much game time as he'd have liked over the past few seasons, so it makes sense for both parties to come to this agreement.
"At 24, he still has the opportunity to develop, and we wish him nothing but the best with the next steps in his career."
Mulligan 'will thrive' at Hibs, but does this end Triantis talk? - your viewspublished at 11:10 BST 29 June
11:10 BST 29 June
We asked you for your views after Josh Mulligan signed a four-year deal with Hibernian.
Here's what you said:
Laurence: I'm loving the way that Hibs are quietly going out their business.
A solid looking back-up 'keeper, Rocky [Bushiri] re-signed for three years and now Josh Mulligan who caught the eye last season with Dundee.
If we can get Nectar Triantis over the line too, then the new season looks very positive for us.
Credit to David Gray and Malky Mackay.
Alex: Brilliant signing .Good young Scottish talent with good experience at a young age. He will thrive at Hibs.
Brian: Great signing of an excellent player and prospect.
However, I think we can forget about Triantis, we cannot compete with the fee or wages involved in any deal.
Tom: So far, so good. Reasonable signings. Let's get a good centre-half now and enter the fray. It's time to get up there and offer a serious challenge.
Kev: Very good signing who will add strength to an already very good squad. Hopefully Hibs push on and put a stronger challenge to the Old Firm next season.
David: Looks like a brilliant signing. A very versatile player who can play in multiple positions, so it will be very interesting to see how he settles in. 😄
What do the stats say about Mulligan?published at 17:21 BST 27 June

According to data from Opta, last term Mulligan had 83 dribble attempts in the Premiership, the second most of any midfielder to have played at least 25 games and start a minimum of 15.
He completed 32 of those, which puts him third in the same category and shows how he likes to drive forward with the ball.
Playing a mixture of midfield and out on the right gave him the opportunity to do that and he ranks in the top 10 in the league last season for assists and chances created from open play.
He also sits favourably in terms of ball recoveries, although passing accuracy and his success in duels is lower down than the other attributes mentioned.

After loan spells at Cove Rangers and Peterhead, Josh Mulligan's breakthrough campaign at Dundee came in 2022-23.
He played 42 times in all competitions to help the club win the Championship title and return to the top-flight.
Mulligan only played 23 times the following season under Tony Docherty, but was a more important part of the side least season.
Arguably his best game came against Hibernian in a 4-1 win at Dens Park in November.
Playing as a right wing-back, he consistently used his strength and rangy stride to power down the flank, causing havoc for the Hibs defence.
"I'm quite a powerful player, I'd say," Mulligan said. "I'm good with the ball at my feet, I like running at players.
"I create chances but I also have that other side of my game as well, I'm happy to get stuck in, which is needed in this league.
"I can't explain how happy I am to be here."
At just 22, Mulligan has played a decent number of senior games and has plenty of experience of the Premiership, and often stood out playing for the Scotland under-21s due to his early exposure to first-team football.
'No-brainer' for Mulligan to join 'well run' Hibspublished at 14:09 BST 27 June

Signing for Hibernian was "a no-brainer" for Scotland under-21 international Josh Mulligan.
The 22-year-old left Dundee at the end of the season when his contract expired, having coming through the academy at his home town club.
He made 122 appearances including 41 last season, setting up five goals from a combination of central midfield and right wing-back.
"I'm buzzing to be here and I can't wait to get going," he said. "Hibs were the first team that showed interest, and that is usually a good sign.
"They wanted me to come here and be in the first team. Playing against Hibs last season, seeing how good they were and how well run they were, it was a no-brainer for me.
"There are obviously loads of good players in this squad but it was more the way they were playing, that's what impressed me most. It's something I want to be a part of moving forward."
Have your say on 'eye-catching' Mulligan signingpublished at 13:59 BST 27 June

Hibernian head coach David Gray says the club have captured one of the most "eye-catching young players" in the Scottish Premiership in midfielder Josh Mulligan.
The 22-year-old left Dundee at the end of the season when his contract expired, having coming through the academy at his home town club.
He made 122 appearances including 41 last season, setting up five goals from a combination of central midfield and right wing-back.
Mulligan, who played 12 times for Scotland under-21s, has signed a four-year deal with Hibs.
Bushiri 'back home' to build on success with Hibernianpublished at 12:24 BST 27 June

"Home is where you feel loved."
Rocky Bushiri is certainly feeling the love at Hibs.
The centre-half signed his much-anticipated contract extension on Thursday - a three-year deal to boot - to continue his stay with his "family" at the club.
"I'm happy we could find an agreement that is good for both sides," he told Sky Sports.
"We've been talking for a long time but at the same time, it was just off-season, so it's like I never left and I'm happy to join back with the boys and with the family here in HTC."
Defender Bushiri has made 105 appearances for Hibs since his arrival from Norwich City in January 2022, and scored four goals in 35 games last season as David Gray's side finished third in the Premiership.
Gray said Bushiri "played a huge part in our success last season, not only on the pitch but off it in the dressing room, too" and the defender is keen to keep pushing on.
"I want to keep improving and keep being someone that affects other boys in a positive way," he added.
"I think everyone has a role to play in the team and I want to play my role as good as I can."
That role will be key when Hibs take on Midtjylland in their Europa League qualifier next month, before they try to replicate their third-place finish in the top flight.
"We are looking for consistency," he added.
"You see with the players that stayed, who extended their stay at the club, so we need to build on that.
"It's way too early to say things, but I know we want to continue on what we've started last season and the club has given people with new contracts, new tools to fight and we will use them."

Jamie McGrath left Aberdeen to join Scottish Premiership rivals Hibernian
Midfielder Jamie McGrath says the "upward trajectory" of Hibernian was a key factor in his decision to join the club.
The 28-year-old left Aberdeen at the end of last season to pen a four-year deal with the Dons' Scottish Premiership rivals.
The Irishman is happy to have "more stability" and is determined to help the side build on last season's third-placed finish.
On what encouraged him to join the Leith club, he said: "The direction the club is going in, an upward trajectory. Seeing how they finished off the season, it looked a great place to be.
"I've been linked with Hibs a few times in the past, I'm just happy to be here now. There are big European games to look forward to. We want to build on last year."
