Manchester City Council submitted a bid that included a design for an 80,000-capacity stadium on a <a href="/wiki/Greenfield_land" title="Greenfield land">greenfield</a> site west of Manchester city centre. The bid failed and <a href="/wiki/Atlanta" title="Atlanta">Atlanta</a> hosted the Games. Four years later the city council bid to host the <a href="/wiki/2000_Summer_Olympics" title="2000 Summer Olympics">2000 Summer Olympics</a>, but this time focusing on a <a href="/wiki/Brownfield_land" title="Brownfield land">brownfield</a> site 1.6 kilometres (0.99 mi) east of the city centre on derelict land that was the site of <a href="/wiki/Bradford_Colliery" title="Bradford Colliery">Bradford Colliery</a>,<a href="#cite_note-22">[22]</a> known colloquially as Eastlands. The council's shift in focus was driven by emerging government legislation on <a href="/wiki/Urban_renewal" title="Urban renewal">urban renewal</a>, promising vital support funding for such projects; the government became involved in funding the purchase and clearance of the Eastlands site in 1992.<a href="#cite_note-23">[23]</a> For the February 1993 bid the city council submitted another 80,000-capacity stadium design<a href="#cite_note-orig_design-11">[11]</a> produced by design consultants <a href="/wiki/Arup_Group" title="Arup Group">Arup</a>, the firm that helped select the Eastlands site. On 23 September 1993, the games were awarded to Sydney, but the following year Manchester submitted the same scheme design to the <a href="/wiki/Millennium_Commission" title="Millennium Commission">Millennium Commission</a> as a "Millennium Stadium", only to have this proposal rejected. Undeterred, Manchester City Council subsequently bid to host the <a href="/wiki/2002_Commonwealth_Games" title="2002 Commonwealth Games">2002 Commonwealth Games</a>, once again proposing the same site along with downsized stadium plans derived from the 2000 Olympics bid, and this time were successful. In 1996, this same planned stadium competed with <a href="/wiki/Wembley_Stadium" title="Wembley Stadium">Wembley Stadium</a> to gain funding to become the new <a href="/wiki/National_stadium" class="mw-redirect" title="National stadium">national stadium</a>,<a href="#cite_note-24">[24]</a> but the money was used to redevelop Wembley. After successful athletics events at the Commonwealth Games, conversion into a football venue was criticised by athletics figures such as <a href="/wiki/Jonathan_Edwards_(triple_jumper)" title="Jonathan Edwards (triple jumper)">Jonathan Edwards</a> and <a href="/wiki/Sebastian_Coe" title="Sebastian Coe">Sebastian Coe</a><a href="#cite_note-25">[25]</a> as, at the time, the United Kingdom still lacked plans for a large athletics venue due to the capability of installing an athletics track having been dropped from the designs for a rebuilt Wembley Stadium. Had either of the two larger stadium proposals developed by Arup been agreed for funding, then Manchester would have had a venue capable of being adapted to hosting large-scale athletics events through the use of <a href="/wiki/Movable_seating" title="Movable seating">movable seating</a>. Sport England wished to avoid creating a <a href="/wiki/White_elephant" title="White elephant">white elephant</a>, so they insisted that the City Council agree to undertake and fund extensive work to convert the venue from a track-and-field arena to a football stadium, thereby ensuring its long-term financial viability.

In November 2018, the club consulted with season ticket holders on possible alternative configurations for this expansion, including proposals for a still larger two-tier North Stand without executive boxes or corporate hospitality lounges, and possibly with areas convertible to <a href="/wiki/Safe_standing" title="Safe standing">safe standing</a>.

All sides were initially named by compass direction (North Stand and South Stand for the ends, East Stand and West Stand for the sides).<a href="#cite_note-James-70">[69]</a> In February 2004, after a vote by fans, the West Stand was renamed the <a href="/wiki/Colin_Bell_(footballer,_born_1946)" title="Colin Bell (footballer, born 1946)">Colin Bell</a> Stand in honour of the former player.<a href="#cite_note-Bell-71">[70]</a> The vote was almost cancelled (and the stand instead named after <a href="/wiki/Joe_Mercer" title="Joe Mercer">Joe Mercer</a>) due to suspicions it had been hijacked by rival fans who wished to dub the renamed stand The Bell End. However, core supporters of the club made it clear they still wished the stand named after their hero.<a href="#cite_note-Bell-71">[70]</a> The East Stand is unofficially known by fans as <a href="/wiki/The_Kippax" title="The Kippax">the Kippax</a> as a tribute to the very vocal east stand at the club's <a href="/wiki/Maine_Road" title="Maine Road">Maine Road</a> ground.<a href="#cite_note-James-70">[69]</a> The North Stand is the only part of the stadium built after the Commonwealth Games, during the stadium's conversion. The temporary unroofed north stand it replaced had been dubbed the New <a href="/wiki/Gene_Kelly" title="Gene Kelly">Gene Kelly</a> Stand by supporters, a reference to the unroofed corner between the Kippax and the North Stand at the club's former Maine Road home, because, being exposed to the elements, they frequently found themselves "<a href="/wiki/Singin%27_in_the_Rain" title="Singin' in the Rain">singing in the rain</a>".<a href="#cite_note-The_Etihad_Stadium-72">[71]</a> Commencing season 2010–11, seating in the North Stand has been restricted to only supporters accompanied by children, resulting in this end of the ground now being commonly referred to as the Family Stand. Although the North Stand has never been officially renamed and is still frequently referenced that way,<a href="#cite_note-73">[72]</a> most external ticketing offices and stadium guides,<a href="#cite_note-74">[73]</a> in addition to the club itself,<a href="#cite_note-75">[74]</a> now preferentially label and refer to this section of the ground as the Family Stand when discussing seating and ticket sales. Supporters initially dubbed the South Stand the Scoreboard End (the former name of the North Stand at Maine Road), and it houses the majority of City's more vocal fans. Supporters of visiting teams are also normally allocated seats in this stand, as it has ready access from the visitor supporter coach park.<a href="#cite_note-The_Etihad_Stadium-72">[71]</a> From 2003 to 2006, the South Stand was renamed the <a href="/wiki/Key_103" class="mw-redirect" title="Key 103">Key 103</a> Stand for sponsorship reasons, though this was largely ignored by regular patrons. The November 2018 consultation exercise on further expansion options envisages the North Stand then becoming the Home End, with no corporate hospitality areas, a greatly extended second tier, "affordable" ticket prices and possible areas capable of conversion to safe standing. The singing area would then be in the North Stand, and the Family Stand would be relocated elsewhere in the Stadium. <div style="clear:both;" class=""></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="SportCity">SportCity</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=City_of_Manchester_Stadium&action=edit&section=11" title="Edit section: SportCity">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:City_of_Manchester_stadium_Bang_1.JPG" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a4/City_of_Manchester_stadium_Bang_1.JPG/220px-City_of_Manchester_stadium_Bang_1.JPG" decoding="async" width="220" height="155" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a4/City_of_Manchester_stadium_Bang_1.JPG/330px-City_of_Manchester_stadium_Bang_1.JPG 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a4/City_of_Manchester_stadium_Bang_1.JPG/440px-City_of_Manchester_stadium_Bang_1.JPG 2x" data-file-width="1440" data-file-height="1014" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Sportcity" title="Sportcity">SportCity</a> with City of Manchester Stadium (left) and <a href="/wiki/Manchester_Velodrome" title="Manchester Velodrome">Manchester Velodrome</a> (right)</figcaption></figure> The stadium is the centrepiece of <a href="/wiki/Sportcity" title="Sportcity">SportCity</a>, which includes several other nationally important sporting venues.
