Howard Terminal Ballpark is a proposed baseball stadium to be built in the Jack London Square neighborhood of Oakland, California. It would serve as the new home stadium of the Oakland Athletics of Major League Baseball, and replace the Oakland Coliseum as their current home. After several unsuccessful attempts to build a new stadium, both in Oakland and elsewhere, the Athletics landed on their current plan, which is to build a 34,000-seat stadium at Howard Terminal. The site is currently a parcel of land (previously used as a marine terminal for container cargo operations) owned by the Port of Oakland. After securing the site, the Athletics plan to have the stadium built and operational after the team's lease expires at the Oakland Coliseum in 2024.
