I asked Gemini...

No, the electrical substation is not new.

While the theory about it has recently gone viral, the station has been in operation since 1986. The 49ers have used the adjacent practice facility since 1988, meaning they have been operating next to it for nearly 40 years.

Key points regarding its history:

  • Original Build: 1986.
  • 49ers Arrival: 1988 (during which they won three Super Bowls).
  • Expansion: The station was expanded in 2014 to coincide with the opening of Levi's Stadium, which significantly increased its size.
Critics of the theory point out that the team was highly successful and relatively healthy at this same location for decades before the recent "injury curse" began around 2014.
