A metal building with more than 53,000 square feet of space is to be erected just east of Chuckster's Family Fun Park on the Vestal Parkway.

The facility will have multi-use athletic fields, batting cages and a fitness center. The fields would be used for soccer, lacrosse, baseball and softball.

Plans call for the sports complex to open in November. Riley said it will be called the 434 Sportsplex. The facility is expected to create about ten jobs.

Riley said he has operated a youth soccer academy in the Southern Tier for the past seven years.
