I'm thinking that it would be 8 Year for the complete build-out of the area and the arena would be built during one of the earlier phases.

In London, Arsenal received planning permission for their new ground in 2001, they broke ground in 2004, Emirates Stadium opened in 2006, the latest residential developments was completed in the last year and they were recently denied planning permission for the next residential tower.
