CN Sportplex
The CN Sportplex is a large recreational facility located in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada. It consists of ten baseball fields, six soccer fields, and four indoor ice rinks, including the Superior Propane Centre. Also on site is the Moncton Sports Dome, a large air supported structure which offers paintball, golf, soccer and football.
History
The facility is located on 282 acres (1.14 km2) of land which were home to a large Canadian National Railway repair facility until its closure in 1988. The lot remained a vacant brownfield site until 1997, when its owner, Canada Lands Company, decided to develop the property into a recreation centre.
