Rising to the Occasion, SBU & YIMBY Interview About Harlem River Yards

In my opinion, the Atlanta United FC match was one of the best games I've watched in a long time. What say you? New York City FC came away with a huge point against a team that is known for their non-stop attack. Though it did take a penalty shot, a goal reversal and an amazing shot by Alexander Ring to come away with a tie. Along with guest Jordan Kessler, Chris P and I discuss the 2-2 result, we choose one player each to analyze and we also preview the upcoming match against Portland Timbers.

We also talk about an amazing organization we fully support here on The Nation, South Bronx United. Please find a way to support their cause.

This episode is really packed with more goodies as ChrisP is later joined by Nikolai Fedak to talk about the result article YIMBY published in regards to a possible new development project/ soccer stadium for NYCFC called Harlem River Yards. The project coming to the South Bronx would rise adjacent to Somerset Partners’ assortment of new towers already in the works, adding another major affordable housing building, as well as the City’s first dedicated soccer stadium, with 26,000 seats, designed by Rafael Viñoly.

Last, but not least, we are excited to announce the sale of our first NYCFC Nation scarf in which ALL proceeds go towards CITC. Click here to learn more.
