BOSTON -- The A's have handpicked land near Oakland's Laney College as the site they'd like to build a privately financed new stadium, with hopes of breaking ground in 2021 and opening two years later.
The site won over the current Coliseum lot and a spot at Howard Terminal near Jack London Square.
The site sits between Lake Merritt and I-880 and currently includes commercial warehouses, parking lots, and administrative offices for the Peralta Community College District.
