Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is a stadium currently under construction that will serve as the home ground for Tottenham Hotspur F.C. in North London. It has a planned capacity of 62,062, one of the largest in the Premier League and the largest club stadium in London. It is designed to be a multi-purpose stadium and features the world-first dividing retractable football pitch that reveals a synthetic turf underneath for NFL games, concerts and other events. The club opted not to use the name of the previous stadium White Hart Lane, choosing to name it Tottenham Hostpur Stadium instead pending a naming rights deal.

The construction of the stadium was initiated as the centrepiece of the Northumberland Development Project, intended to be the catalyst for a 20-year regeneration project in Tottenham. The project covers the existing site of the old ground of White Hart Lane, which has now been demolished, and areas adjacent to it. The project was first conceived in 2007 and announced in 2008, but the plan was revised several times, and the construction of the stadium, beset by disputes and delays, did not commence until 2015. The stadium is scheduled to be completed for the 2018–19 season, although the first game played in the stadium will be the second home game of the season.
