The new stadium will have flowing lines of external cladding and an undulating roof carrying the club’s colours.
Construction work on a new supermarket and commercial space for businesses is scheduled to commence in September 2012 and complete by 2014, while the stadium itself will be completed by 2016, according to the Enfield Independent.
Following the demolition of the current White Hart Lane stadium in 2016, new homes will be constructed.
The council said it had agreed with the Greater London Authority to deliver a £27m investment in north Tottenham.
Haringey Council will spend £9m on the regeneration scheme, while London Mayor Boris Johnson has committed £18m for a mass regeneration.
