Why did the 49ers move from Candlestick Park? The 49ers left Candlestick Park after the 2013 season for a new $1.2 billion stadium in Santa Clara. Following an outpouring of community concerns, developer Lennar Urban caved to pressure and agreed to tear down the stadium, rather than blowing it up, which would have been faster but potentially more dangerous.
