Manchester City have announced a feasibility study for the expansion of the Etihad Stadium to a capacity of over 60,000 plus other entertainment developments.
Manchester City have formally started feasibility studies to explore the potential expansion of the North Stand at the Etihad Stadium, as well as the possible development of a hotel and other entertainment facilities.
Also covered by the feasibility study will be a new club shop, museum, expanded 'City Square' fan zone with more food and drink outlets, and a potential hotel on site to make the Etihad a 'year-round entertainment and leisure destination.' The current City Square backs onto the two-tiered North Stand, with a separate club shop and museum facing it.City last expanded the Etihad in 2015, when 7,000 seats were added to the South Stand with a new third tier added behind the goal.
City say the feasibility studies are aligned with the Eastlands Regeneration Framework and add that they want to ensure that 'Etihad Campus facilities are a significant source of community, employment, and economic opportunity for the local community and Manchester'.
