 | | Much of East Rutherford's land is taken up by the Meadowlands Sports Complex, a project begun by the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority in the 1970s. |
 | | The concrete complex, which was erected on the marshlands of the Hackensack Meadowlands, contains a racetrack, stadium, and indoor arena (formerly the Brendan Byrne Arena, now the Continental Airlines Arena), all protected against flooding by a system of dikes, lagoons, and pumps. |
 | | Already in place is the Hackensack Meadowlands Development Commission's Environment Center, a museum and nature center that focuses on environmental problems, which the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority, as part of its proposal to build the Meadowlands Sports Complex, agreed to help build, finance and maintain. |
