Thirteen years after the National Stadium had opened in 1984, it was considered too small and did not have the facilities required of the time and it was demolished and a new stadium, the Millennium Stadium, was built in its place (completed to a north–south alignment and opened in June 1999). This would become the fourth redevelopment on the site.<ref name="The Stadium">{{cite web |url=http://www.millenniumstadium.com/3473_3557.php |publisher=[[Millennium Stadium]] |title=Background to the Millennium Stadium Project |access-date=5 May 2008|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071009115105/http://www.millenniumstadium.com/3473_3557.php |archive-date=9 October 2007|url-status=dead}}</ref>

Construction involved the demolition of a number of buildings, primarily the existing National Stadium, [[Wales Empire Pool]] in Wood Street, Cardiff Empire Telephone Exchange building and the newly built [[Territorial Army (United Kingdom)|Territorial Auxiliary and Volunteer Reserve]] building both in Park Street, and the [[Department of Social Security|Social Security]] offices in Westgate Street.<ref name="Millennium"/><ref name="BBC Wales">{{cite news |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/wales/436549.stm |publisher=BBC |title=Two years – and one awesome stadium |access-date=24 August 2008 |date=2 September 1999 |archive-date=18 September 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110918120127/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/wales/436549.stm |url-status=live }}</ref> The Millennium Stadium is now on roughly two-thirds of the National Stadium, but it no longer uses the Arms Park name.<ref name="Millennium" /> Since 2016, it has been known as the Principality Stadium.
