I would imagine if we are throwing down $400 mil it WILL be an SSS.
yeah the article even says its going to be a SSS
Yeah I get that. Was just replying to the poster asking if it would be an SSS. I would imagine they'd use ours for Football/Soccer and maybe convert the soccer to lacrosse only.What the article says is:
"The proposal is to build a new, larger stadium amid the crowded complex that could be used by the soccer team and Columbia’s football team." (emphasis added)
Got it. Which sport? Football is the fall. Soccer runs more or less during the school year -- fall to spring.Yeah I get that. Was just replying to the poster asking if it would be an SSS. I would imagine they'd use ours for Football/Soccer and maybe convert the soccer to lacrosse only.
Anyone know their playing season?
Yes, also having a younger router fan base is a cool prospects a lot of people were wanting a support section to be as involved like the "Cameron Crazies"and everyone's main argument on how that wouldn't happen was because they're colege kids. Well this would crush that argument hahaFinally some news. I like this option. Also, college students will bolster our ST holder base. I think 25,000 is too small though.

The sports complex is 5 miles from campus, and the campus isn't dry.I'm taking a guess and saying that Columbia is a "dry campus." The schools stance better not have an effect on whether or not beer is sold at the NYCFC games. They'd have to monitor it especially with the likely prospect of a large amount of students going to the games since it's on campus
???Ideally, the stadium would be able to accommodate commuters from both sides of manhattan. Anyone living in the central or east Bronx, and west manhattan would really be difficult to get to. That's what makes near Yankee Stadium such a great spot. That's where I'm pulling.
Yep. I'm at 100 St and Riverside...2 blocks from the 1 line, so it's fine by me. Can we tear down the Allen Pavilion of Columbia Presbyterian Hospital at the north of the site and use that space, too !???
West Manhattan is possibly the area of the city that has the easiest trip to this site.
It's an interesting option that posters in this thread have cleverly brought up in the past.
It would be a tough ride for those of us from Westchester (and Connecticut as well). The Metro North stop is far from ideal, and there are zero parking options.
That said, it would provide plenty of room for a nice stadium. I still prefer a Bronx location, but this is certainly better than Acqueduct.
