The Golden State Warriors have been located in the Bay Area since moving from Philadelphia in 1962. They played in Daly City as the San Francisco Warriors for almost 10 years, and have played in Oakland ever since. The Warriors began to buy part of a 12-acre site on the eastern side of San Francisco in April of 2014. The groundbreaking for the new arena happened on Jan. 17, 2017. The site is destined to hold the 18,000-seat capacity Chase Center, the new home of the Warriors.
