A's shift focus to new site for Fremont stadium

The Oakland A’s have shifted the focus of where the team wants to build a new $500 million ballpark, now preferring a site in Fremont near a planned BART station.

The new site, in the city’s Warm Springs district, is roughly between the New United Motor Manufacturing Inc. plant — a joint venture between Toyota Motor Corp. and General Motors Corp. — and Interstate 680.

The team had previously centered its efforts on a site in Fremont about two miles to the west near Auto Mall Parkway and Interstate 880.
