It is part of the Meadowlands Sports Complex and serves as the home stadium for two National Football League ( NFL ) franchises : the New York Giants and the New York Jets. The stadium is owned by the MetLife Stadium Company, a joint venture of the Giants and Jets, who jointly built the stadium using private funds on land owned by the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority. The stadium opened as New Meadowlands Stadium in 2010. In 2011, MetLife, an insurance company based in New York City, acquired the naming rights to the stadium. At a construction cost of approximately $1.6 billion, it is the most expensive stadium ever built and is the second - largest stadium in the NFL in terms of seating capacity. MetLife Stadium is the only NFL stadium shared by two clubs since the 2000s. Los Angeles ' Staples Center ( the Clippers and the Lakers ) of the National Basketball Association ( NBA ) is the only other facility to currently house two teams from the same sports league in the United States.

The Jets, who had been the lesser tenants at the stadium ( which was called simply `` The Meadowlands '' for Jets games ), sought to have their own stadium built in Manhattan proper, the proposed West Side Stadium. Originally intended to be the 85,000 - seat main stadium for New York 's bid for the 2012 Summer Olympics, it was designed to be downsized to 75,000 seats for the Jets. However, the West Side Stadium would have required significant public funding, which collapsed in 2005. The Jets then entered into a partnership with the Giants to build a new stadium in which the two teams would be equal partners. Design Construction on MetLife Stadium, as seen in 2007 ( top ) and 2008 ( bottom ) near Giants Stadium The architects were tasked with designing a neutral stadium that would still embody the distinct personalities of both franchises. The Giants favored a traditional look of exposed steel framework and rusticated stone while the Jets wanted a sleek and modern look highlighted by metal and glass. With those features in mind the designers used the column / tower dynamic seen in many of Manhattan 's skyscrapers as inspiration for the stadium 's design. The base of the stadium 's facade is clad in limestone - like stonework while the rest of the stadium is distinguished by an outer skin of aluminum louvers and glass and by interior lighting capable of switching colors, depending on which team is currently playing ; blue for the Giants and green for the Jets. This idea originated at the Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany, which is shared between the city 's two major soccer clubs, Bayern Munich and 1860 Munich. Unlike Giants Stadium, MetLife Stadium can easily be converted from a Giants game to a Jets game or vice versa, within a matter of hours. The total linear length of louvers is exactly 50,000 meters ( 50 kilometers ) or 163,681 feet ( 31.1 miles ). Front row 50 yard line seats are 46 feet ( 14 m ) away from the sideline, which is the shortest distance of all NFL stadiums. To change the field decorations, two 4 - person crews take appx. 18 hours using forklifts and other machinery to remove the 40 sections of FieldTurf which make up the teams ' respective endzones. Unlike most NFL stadiums, the NFL 's logo is painted at midfield, instead of the logo of one of the teams, also shortening the transition time. The replaceable team logos at midfield were removed in August 2010, after Domenik Hixon tore his anterior cruciate ligament at a practice at the stadium during training camp. Unlike a number of other new NFL venues, MetLife Stadium does not have a roof, as proposals to include a roof failed, over a dispute for funding. Thus, indoor events such as the Final Four can not be held at the facility, which runs counter to the original aims for a new stadium in northern New Jersey. 10 giant high - definition - ready light emitting diode ( LED ) pylons, located at the north, south, east and west entrances, display videos of the team currently in - house. The pylons measure approximately 54 feet ( 16 m ) high by 20 feet ( 6.1 m ) wide. Inside, are four 30 feet ( 9.1 m ) by 116 feet ( 35 m ) high definition video displays, and hang from each corner of the upper deck. The new stadium seating bowl is laid out similar to that of Giants Stadium and has seating for 82,500 people, including 10,005 club seats and approximately 218 luxury suites, making it the second - largest NFL stadium in terms of total seating. lower bowl mid-bowl upper bowl 33,346 21,323 27,897 MetLife Stadium includes a total of four locker rooms : one each for the Giants and Jets, as well as 2 for visiting teams. The home teams have locker rooms on opposite ends of the stadium with a visitors ' locker room adjacent to it ; the unused visitors ' locker room is used for spillover by the home team, on game days. In 2012, DLR Group partnered with NRG Energy to design and install a `` Solar Ring '' on the upper rim of MetLife Stadium. The Solar Ring consists of 1,350 building integrated photovoltaic ( BIPV ) solar panels assembled into 47 individual frames. The BIPV panels are illuminated with LED lighting and programmed to display the signature blue and green colors of the Giants and the Jets along with other hues for events such as concerts, soccer matches and college sports. The panels generate about 350 KW, nearly 25 times the amount of electricity that 's actually needed to power the LED display system. The excess power generated can go into the general stadium use or back to the grid. Technical agreements Lease terms View of MetLife Stadium ( under construction ) and Giants Stadium ( on right ) in July 2009 The two teams formed the New Meadowlands Stadium Company, LLC ( now MetLife Stadium Company ), a 50 / 50 joint venture, to build and operate the stadium. The two teams leased the parcel of land on which the stadium stands from the NJSEA for a 25 - year term, with options to extend it which could eventually reach 97 years. After the 15th year of the lease, and every five years, hence ; one of the 2 teams may opt out of the lease after giving the state 12 months notice. However, if one team leaves for a new stadium, the other team would have to remain for the remainder of the lease. Based on the teams ' histories, this clause presumably allows the Jets to eventually decide they want to play in their own stadium and leave if they can find a way to finance it. However, the high cost of building and relocating to a new stadium makes this very unlikely ( although the Jets have relocated their facilities to Florham Park, New Jersey ). The teams also get parking revenue from the Meadowlands ' western parking lots year round, even when there are no events at the stadium ( this would occur when other parts of the Meadowlands host events ). Naming rights Allianz, a financial services and insurance company based in Germany, expressed interest in purchasing naming rights to the stadium. The proposal was for a period of up to 30 years, and was estimated to be valued at between $20 million and $30 million USD. However, it sparked protests from New York 's Jewish community ( the largest outside of Israel ) and the Anti-Defamation League, which opposed the move due to close ties in the past between Allianz and the government of Nazi Germany during World War II. Rabbi Jay Rosenbaum, however, secretary general of the North American Board of Rabbis, agreed that although survivors ' sensibilities are understandable, a naming deal is legitimate. `` I have found Allianz to be receptive, to be sensitive and a friend of the Jewish people today, '' he said. Allianz sponsors the venue that inspired the color - change technology for MetLife Stadium : Allianz Arena in Munich. No agreement was reached and talks between Allianz and the teams ended on September 12, 2008. On June 27, 2011, it was reported that insurance company MetLife entered discussions to purchase naming rights to the stadium. The new name, MetLife Stadium, became official when all parties signed a 25 - year deal on August 23. EPA agreement The exterior of MetLife Stadium, configured for a Giants game In June 2009, the New Meadowlands Stadium Corporation and the EPA signed a memorandum of understanding that outlines plans to incorporate environmentally - friendly materials and practices into the construction and operation of MetLife Stadium. The agreement includes strategies to reduce air pollution, conserve water and energy, improve waste management, and reduce the environmental impact of construction. The goal of the agreement is to save the emission of nearly 1.68 million metric tons of carbon dioxide during the stadium 's construction and its first year of operation. Under this agreement, the stadium construction must use around 40,000 tons of recycled steel, recycle 20,000 tons of steel from Giants Stadium, install seating made from recycled plastic and scrap iron, and reduce air pollution from construction vehicles by using cleaner diesel fuel, diesel engine filters, and minimizing engine idle times. Other goals of this agreement include providing mass transit options for fans and replacing traditional concession plates, cups and carries with compostable alternatives. The New Meadowlands Stadium Corporation is to report the progress on its goals to EPA every six months. Based on the reports, the EPA has stated it will quantify the benefits of the venue 's environmental efforts.

The NFL requires that a Super Bowl hosting stadium must have an average temperature of 50 ° or higher in February or be held in an indoor climate - controlled facility. However, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell waived this requirement. The stadium was allowed on the ballot because of a `` unique, once - only circumstance based on the opportunity to celebrate the new stadium and the great heritage and history of the NFL in the New York region ''.

The stadium hosted another international friendly, between the United States and Argentina on March 26, 2011, which ended in a 1 -- 1 draw and was played in front of a sellout crowd of 78,926. Another exhibition match in preparation for 2014 FIFA World Cup was played on November 14, 2012 between Colombia and Brazil, with Brazil acting as the local team despite a higher affluence of Colombian fans. On June 26, 2016, the stadium hosted the Copa América Centenario Final, a special 100th anniversary edition of the Copa América, organized jointly by CONMEBOL and CONCACAF, hosted by the USA, and the first to take place outside South América. Chile beat Argentina 4 -- 2 on penalties after a 0 -- 0 draw after extra time to claim their second consecutive Copa América Championship in front of 82,026 fans.
