Etihad Park is a planned soccer-specific stadium to be built in the Willets Point neighborhood of Queens, New York City. The stadium is the future home of New York City FC of Major League Soccer (MLS), who currently play home games at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx and Citi Field across the street.
Etihad Park is designed by the company HOK,[4] with the projected $780 million building costs to be funded by NYCFC itself.[5] Construction is scheduled to begin in 2024 and is expected to be completed before the 2027 season.[6][7]
The naming rights are owned by Etihad Airways, the current kit sponsors of the club.
