Northumberland Development Project
The Northumberland Development Project is a mixed-use development project that centres around the new Tottenham Hotspur Stadium which replaced White Hart Lane as the home ground of Tottenham Hotspur. On opening in April 2019, the stadium had a capacity for 62,062 spectators, later increased to 62,303, and was designed to host football as well as NFL games. The development plans also include 585 new homes, a 180-room hotel, a local community health centre, the Tottenham Experience, a Spurs museum and club shop, an extreme sports facility, as well as the Lilywhite House, which contains a Sainsbury's supermarket, a sixth form college and the club's headquarters.

Aerial view from the south of White Hart Lane before redevelopment, Wingate industrial estate was located to the north of stadium. Great part of the area here would be rebuilt in the Northumberland Development Project.
First design for the Northumberland Development Project, the old buildings on High Road would be demolished to create a public square in this plan, which led to objections. The stadium itself was later redesigned.
