10 Reason Spurs Desperately Need Their New Stadium

4. To Generally Get With The Times

White Hart Lane is a very basic ground with poor facilities in comparison to Spurs' major Premier League rivals. The new stadium will simply elevate the club in to the 21st century, at long last, as the project boasts a number of state-of-the-art facilities and amenities. As well as the new 56,250 capacity, the new development includes a public square, located on a raised podium running from the High Road through to Worcester Avenue, redevelopment of the High Road, with a courtyard setting for retained historic buildings and new landscaping in front of the stadium, 275 new homes, Sainsbury's supermarket with parking, with club offices above, a primary school run by the E-ACT Free Schools Trust in partnership with the Department for Education and Spurs themselves, new offices for the Tottenham Hotspur Foundation charity, with state-of-the-art facilities allowing for even greater reach and impact, a Spurs club Megastore and museum, together with a new ticket office and cafe, as well as a University Technical College specialising in sports, science and health in partnership with Middlesex University. Essentially, the whole thing is going to be modern, state-of-the art, good for the community and it will look fantastic. Welcome to the new millennium, Spurs!
