The New York Cosmos Stadium was a proposed 25,000-seat soccer-specific stadium and multipurpose facility.[1] It was to be located in the New York metropolitan area in Nassau County, just over the city border.[2][3] Plans were submitted to New York's Empire State Development Corporation. Upon completion, it would have been the home stadium of the New York Cosmos.[4] The plan was abandoned in 2016.
