History (from Wikipedia)
The stadium is projected to have an all-seated capacity of 8,005.[36] It will comprise four stands; the East Stand (Main Stand), the West Stand, the North Stand and the South Stand.[36] The three-floored East Stand is to accommodate hospitality guests, players, officials and the media, and will be connected to the adjacent retail and community facilities.[36] The stands will stretch the length of the playing field, and each corner will host stadium facilities, including matchday emergency services, stewarding, groundsman accommodation, plant space and a fan zone.[36] The seats will be coloured red, white and blue, a combination of the colours of both teams.[36]
The pitch will use reinforced natural grass, with provision to counter frost.[36] The dimensions for football matches will be 105 by 68 metres (115 by 74 yd), with 3-metre-wide run-offs on the sides and 6.5- metre-wide run-offs behind the goals, which will meet FIFA recommendations.[36] The dimensions for rugby league matches will be 100 by 68 metres (109 by 74 yd), with 6-metre in-goal areas, and 3-metre-wide run-offs on the sides and after the dead ball lines.[36]
Adjoining the stadium will be the leisure complex, which will include a 25-metre, six-lane swimming pool, a sports hall for netball, badminton and basketball, a gym with dance and spinning studios, an adventure sports zone and three 3G five-a-side pitches.[20] A community hub will house health and well-being services for York residents and visitors, including clinical services, an independent living assessment centre and a library.[20]
