Jets Announce Final Plans for Stadium

Jets Stadium?

The New York Jets have announced the final plans for their 70,000 seat stadium to be constructed on Manhattan's Upper West Side. The Stadium is to be constructed by a top quality construction firm at an estimated cost of $500 million. It is believed that the Jets' Organization will contribute $125 million while the rest will be asked for during a public vote.

The plans include a retractable roof with a grass playing field. Although many Jet officials have said they do not plan on using the roof and altering the games because of the weather, they feel that the retractable roof will make the plans more appealing to the public for the use of other events besides the minimum of ten football games.

The Stadium will include many features that do not exist in their current stadium including 150 luxury suites and 10,000 club seats, sit down restaurants and entertainment along with methods of mass transportation due to the difficulties it could be to travel in New York City.

The Vote is scheduled soon.
