[WATCH] New York City FC's $780M Stadium: 10 Years Homeless
The video details the decade-long journey of New York City FC to secure a permanent home stadium. Despite winning the 2021 MLS Cup, the team had been playing in various temporary venues across New York, including Yankee Stadium and Citi Field, and even played a continental match 2,800 miles away in Los Angeles due to venue restrictions. The struggle was marked by failed proposals in Flushing Meadows Corona Park and the Bronx, and an almost comical parade of other failed proposals. Finally, construction has begun on the $780 million Etihad Park, a privately financed, soccer-specific stadium in Willets Point, Queens, directly across from Citi Field. Designed by HOK and built by Turner Construction, the stadium will be fully electric, powered by rooftop solar panels and a rainwater harvesting system. The broader $3 billion redevelopment includes 2,500 affordable housing units, a public school, a hotel, and public open spaces, all served by accessible public transportation. Set to open in 2027, Etihad Park represents a major milestone for NYCFC and the local community.
