Atlantic Health Jets Training Facility
Metal Building Plays Key Role In New York Jets Training Complex
In September 2008, the Atlantic Health Jets Training Facility was finally completed. After about 18 months of construction, the nearly 85,000 square-foot indoor practice facility was ready for the National Football League’s New York Jets to hit the turf.
Metal building systems from Mid-West Steel Building Company played a key role in the construction of the facility.
Bill Senn of the New York Jets expressed how pleased he is with the new building, “We chose a metal building because it offered some flexibility to work with and we could incorporate some architectural aspects into the building as well. We feel confident that a metal building will serve us well over time.”
This indoor practice facility features an architectural feel that integrates it into the same style as the other buildings on campus and offers some dimension as well. In addition, the space features a lot of natural light as well as a state-of-the-art sport lighting system for video taping purposes. The practice field is full-size and the uprights are extendable to avoid obstructions.
The indoor practice facility is utilized by the team as they gear up for the NFL season. Practices are able to be filmed for playback by the coaching staff and the coaching staff can even monitor practice
