Gotham FC is getting a home of its own, as the 2025 NWSL champion announced plans for a first-ever dedicated training center this week.
Designed by SHoP Architects, the 27,000-square-foot $35 million project takes over the New York Red Bulls’ former New Jersey grounds, featuring three grass pitches plus a full-size indoor field for year-round access.
Additional highlights include a 3,000-square-foot gym, hydrotherapy and recovery rooms, player lounge, and dining area.
“We are building an environment that allows our athletes to perform, recover, and develop at the highest level every day,” said President of Soccer Operations Yael Averbuch West in a statement. “This facility represents a major step in aligning our infrastructure with our sporting ambitions.”
Gotham currently splits resources between two borrowed sites. The setup forces players to commute between indoor and outdoor facilities.
“It’s always been honestly one of the things that we were probably behind other clubs,” head coach Juan Carlos Amorós told The Athletic.
“We’ve been really good on the pitch… But I think the players always felt that we could go another level with regards to the facilities.”
