The Jets haven’t called New York home since 1983. That was their last game at Shea Stadium before moving to East Rutherford, where they’ve been ever since. New York Senator Joe Addabbo is sick and tired of it, folks. He not only wants to bring the Jets back to New York, but he also wants to bring them back to Queens. And we’re specifically talking about Willets Point.
This area, which is already home to Citi Field, will soon begin construction on a 25,000-seat stadium for NYCFC that’s scheduled to open in 2027. Addabbo clearly wants everyone to think a little bigger than that.
