New York Islanders Daily: Belmont Constructive Expected To Begin In May
The New York Islanders are expected to start construction of their new arena in May of 2019 according to their owner Jon Ledecky.
It’s been almost a year since the New York Islanders officially announced their return to Long Island, with the Belmont Park Arena. Since the announcement was official, the biggest question was when is the development going to begin.
It appears we have that answer after co-owner Jon Ledecky spoke to the media yesterday. In May of 2019, you can expect the ground to break on the Islanders new arena.
This news comes on the heels of reported backlash from the community, but Jon Ledecky says he’s taking that very seriously.
