The glitzy building will be located in San Francisco’s Mission Bay neighborhood, and is privately financed.
Per CSN Bay Area:
The two-minute video, unveiled by Warriors COO Rick Welts, shows the exterior of the building and its surrounding area west of the Bay and several blocks south of AT&T Park. It also provides a glimpse of the interior of the arena.
The building, slated to seat about 18,000 for basketball, will be privately financed at a cost of about $1 billion. It will be situated adjacent to the Mission Bay campus of the University of California-San Francisco medical center.
Meanwhile, the Warriors continue to seek final approval while a group of local citizens – the Mission Bay Alliance – remains determined to fight the new arena proposal on the grounds of its impact to traffic and the UCSF medical center.
