- Landmark Development released a Soldier Field renovation proposal video, showcasing a new dome. But, the Chicago Bears aren't convinced. READ MORE: abc7.ws/3VWjwNG
This looks AMAZING, and I'm sure a family of four can save for years and years just to get the chance to go to one game. Including parking, food, drinks, and game tickets that will cost that family of four a cool $2000 or maybe $4000 by the time it's completed.
Especially as your taxes will spike to pay for this! Let the 100 year old billionaire and her family pay for it. Tell the city of Chicago to sell the land and building to them for what they would pay in Arlington Heights and the cost of a new stadium after renovations. Otherwise Chicago may as well kiss their team goodbye and make plans to commute a whole (gasp) 30 minutes into the suburbs
@@justinritchhart1497 Taxes?!...don't worry about taxes. The new casino will pay for that. We'll be fine.🤦🏿
what do you think will happen with any new stadium especially in arlington heights.
@@justinritchhart1497 Even in Arlington heights your city taxes will go to that stadium as well. No owner pays 100% for their stadiums. League pays a quarter owner pays some & your taxes. So yea you're paying for it either way.
@TheTruth53 maybe the same thing, but Chicago has a history of mismanagement, and politicians do a lot of shady things when they have an opportunity to reward friends and cronies. The skyway and street parking are perfect examples of bad business dealings.
As a Chicagoan how phenomenal would this be? I would absolutely love it! But as a Chicago realist this seems no more feasible than visiting the planet Krypton, Superman’s home-world.
Our city has a strong history of building great things when all the right palms are greased. Even if the Bears leave, a development like this could be executed if you get enough communities and interest groups to have some skin in the game.
Yup… still feel robbed that Chicago never finished building the tallest building of the United Stated the Chicago Spiro.
Naw fam they would make parking prices $100+ a spot & tickets would be only for the rich no thanks I think I speak for all Bears fans when I say I'm excited to see an AT&T or met life like stadium for the bears they deserve it
Plus it's alot easier to drive to & through Arlington Heights
@@greekfire1875waste of Tax dollars if the bears don't play there put a retractable dome on it for concerts & festivals call it a day
@@Donaldtrummp if they build the stadium 🏟️ to Arlington heights traffic will b a nightmare. Less ways to get to the stadium.
If they bring a Super Bowl to Solider Field in that venue it would be it may be one of the most epic events of all-time. The see through dome world be amazing.
This stadium would still be owned by the City of Chicago, the Bears would not see this revenue from outside events and I think that is one of their big points for moving to Arlington Heights. I don't blame the Bears for wanting their own stadium and increasing the value of the franchise in the process
Good. I want money going to my city. Not Arlington Heights? Who even lives there?
@@BruteStrength99 😂
I still want a variation of this to happen with or without the Bears. I live in Chicago and would like to enjoy a venue like this for concerts and other large events. If the Bears want to own their own stadium, they are free to move to AH as they would like. Good luck coming up with the money to build everything they want in AH.
It doesn't have to be the bears it could be another NFL football team
@@BruteStrength99 don’t feel bad the San Francisco 49ers move to Santa Clara 20 miles away so we know how it feels
My issue is they addressed the dome and kind of addressed the entertainment around it. But they didn’t address them add more seats, fixing the 400 section which I’m shocked nobody has died from with those steep stairs and making it more accessible during the game to get food and snacks etc on upper levels
😂😂
Dude, you think a stadium that immense-doesnt have to capacity to 80,000 fans? Probably has built in expansion capabilities for another 20,000 as well.
As a more modern stadium, getting to your seat won't be a problem.
😂 A new look soldier field will easily solve those issues.
I love the scale and the concept, I just wish the architectural style was Neoclassical like the original construction and the surrounding Museum Campus. Imagine how massive and elegant that Greco-Roman "Temple of Athletes" would be. 🏛️
I totally agree, the addition doesn't even complement the original structure nor Field Museum.
Bears are still going to Arlington Heights. Too little too late.
Guess not
Where was this in 2001? We got a spaceship instead.
Even if you build this, who's going to play there? No NFL team is going to move there because they won't own the favility.
Not a Chicagoan, but to see Soldier Field transformed into this would be pretty sweet. It would definitely be a destination.
Bears players deserve better. You play in one of the biggest markets, yet one of the oldest stadiums with the smallest capacity in the league. The move to Arlington Heights would be great for the team and the state.
@@BlakeSmith-jh1hj it’s between Arlington Heights and this renovation but Arlington is more likely
Looks Like Soldier Field Going Bye-Bye
@@BlakeSmith-jh1hj It’s capacity is near 62,000. What do you guys want? 85,000???
I'd rather them restore the pre renovation version of it
1. Parking/traffic still sucks
2. Bears don't own the stadium
3. Seating capacity is still too small
4. More room for entertainment in Arlington Heights
It’s really funny how they can come up with $2.2 billion for the Bears but he can’t come up with any money for the homeless situation or the people that lives in the houses or apartments Lucha Cove. It is sad but go Bears.
Don't forget...it will end up WAY more than $2.2B and much of that will all get LOOTED and filtered back to ChicagoLand Politicians: They will fill the concrete with foam and rocks to pocket the majority of the $$ and then the place will be falling down in 10 years like everything the City Touches - this will be no different!
If they put 2.2 billion into the homeless “problem” then it’ll be like throwing it away. These people don’t want to help them selfs can’t help them no matter how much money is thrown there. This would be an investment. And will see huge returns if it actually happen….which it won’t.
You raise a fair point. The difference between the two sadly is economics. Stadium renovation means tax revenue returning to the city throw games, events and tourism. Pumping money into homelessness doesn't have the same financial glow unfortunately. It's a sad truth honestly.
Go watch George Carlin video here on UA-cam about homelessness...I rest my case.
This will bring jobs and build the economy. Money invested that will yield benefits to the state and city. Giving money to homeless people doesn't solve homelessness
The city of Chicago would mess this up just like they messed up the last remodel of Soldier Field. Elect clowns and you should expect a clown show.
If I’m the Bears I’m saying “thank you for the ideasss & good luck after ‘24” 😂😂
This is a great concept and it would work well for the city of Chicago and the bears, but if the bears cannot own it then this is a just good looking concept
If this happens there will definitely be a superbowl in Chicago
Only Problem I see with this stadium is? *It's too late.* The unfortunate set of circumstances that made them remodel a few years ago was short&sighted & relatively cheap & not efficient.
Now, they appear to have a better plan to rebuild on the lakefront, the Bears have come to a realization-
Ownership of their Own Stadium
would greatly increase profits.
Now
*Where they Gon get the funding?* from is the $2-billion question.
Totally awesome but I think it is too late 😢
As a Packers fan, this would be an incredible stadium to visit if it happened. I just can't imagine Chicago losing the Bears is like if the Cubs left. It does remind me some what of So-Fi stadium.
The Bears are still leaving. You guys put a dome on top and didn’t add anymore additional seats. It’s the smallest stadium in the NFL. Peace out soldier field
Agree and still not paid up for the last renovation at soldier field.
YES! I love this! I hope the Bears don't leave Soldier Field. Nothing wrong with Arlington Park, but it's not Soldier Field. I love what the video said... Build on our rich history!
When I was there to watch your game it is just unique and it is a great experience it's almost a historical cathedral keep it in that location
This stadium proposal compared to Bears Proposal..
-More transit options ✅
-More Parking ✅
-70K seat stadium ✅
-Friends of the Park happy ✅
-One Central Development included ✅
-HALF the Cost ✅
-Retractable doors that open outside/open air ✅
-Keeps the columns intergraded to the actual stadium ✅
-Offers more restaurants/Fan complex (with One Central) ✅
Though I may be a Packers fan, I say that the Bears should do whatever they can to keep playing at soldier field. Like Wrigley it's an iconic stadium that's been around with the bears for years! It has a lot of meaning to not only the people of Chicago but every Bear's player that ever played in that stadium. Without it, Chicago would lose one of the most historically significant stadiums to its history. Where with Wrigley Field and kept their original stadium alive and well, I hope and pray the Bears can do the same. Also having Chicago be able to host a Superbowl would actually be really cool too!
Build that... but in Arlington Heights.
Oh you better believe that Balmoral Stadium is going to be the envy of the league. The charter franchise finally owns their own? It’s going to be epic.
This would be amazing if this happens!
If chicago doesn't walk away from old and historic assets then maybe you can explain the old chicago stadium? This looks really good by the way but your going to have to offer the bears something to keep them there by the sounds of things.
Only one problem bears want own it so no go
This will be a great stadium for another NFL AFC team
An AFC team isn’t coming to Chicago
@@nangmung772 As soon as the Cardinals left the city it became the Bears for better or worse.
XFL or USFL more then likely
Why not level it and then build it from bottom up?
Easy answer: The preservation of Soldier Field.
how bout some parking and tailgate areas
City can barely control the cta 💀
Exactly..........
Now even a bears fan but Best stadium in the league hands down
Chicago should still build this but the bears should still move to Arlington Heights because I’ve always said Chicago is a big city and it deserves at least 2 NFL teams and I’m a soccer fan so anything better then Chicago fire cause they sux this city deserves more!
A bad idea that is not going to happen.
While the city was gutting the oldest stadium in the league Seattle was building Qwest Field for half the cost of the Soldier Field renovation.
A renovation that reduced the seating capacity to the smallest in the NFL and cost Soldier Field its landmark status.
THAT is why the Bears are leaving.
In the former location of the South Works steel mill you have a vacant 415 acre site on the lakefront that could be given to the Bears and let them build their own stadium but that is way too close to the crime problems that plague the South Side.
The Mayor is just too busy floating ideas like this and a casino instead of getting control of that mess.
You would rather have it be demolished in 2 years than to have it remodeled & still in use? That is what is going to happen if the Bears leave. It will be become to costly it will be torn down & made into a useless park. So yea great idea bud.
That is not accurate that the city did something different from what the Bears wanted in 2002, the city gave the Bears everything they wanted. Seating capacity isn't important to teams anymore its all about premium seating that they can sell to corporations and extremely high net worth individuals. And the reason the Bears are moving is because they can own a stadium/real estate development, not because they are dissatisfied with the 2002 renovation.
@@thetruth5350 Who is going to play there?
Who is going to come up with the 2 Billion price tag for the same place with a bubble on top instead of building a new one for the same money?
The Bears control their own destiny now.
They do not want to rent a stadium, they are going to own the land in Arlington Heights and they are done with Soldier Field.
The Mayor claims "We will just get another team"
That is NOT going to happen.
The NFL is not moving a team to Chicago and the Bears are not going to vote for another team coming here. They do have a vote in this matter.
@@jeffc1347 I never said the city did something different from what the Bears wanted.
I know they are moving because they can own a stadium/real estate development. The renovation just bought them time and nothing has been done since then.
The renovation was paid for by the city, the NFL and the Bears but the NFL and the Bears do not own the stadium while the city does.
That money was poorly spent and now they are going to be stuck with tiny crowds at Soccer games, occasional concerts and a college football game once in a while.
That is if they can finally manage to keep the turf in playing condition for ANY sporting events.
That alone has been a mess for years.
Or the Bears can build all this and more on the 300 acre open plot of land they're buying in Arlington Heights and keep all the money and finally be a big boy franchise.
I guess as long as they pay for it in full😬 not sure how they have the audacity to demand ownership and then expect taxpayers to pay for half or provide them with tax breaks... Whether it's Chicago or Arlington Heights
doesn’t solve any problems, we need a bigger stadium and better parking. please move to arlington
Regardless where we stand with the Chicago Bears We should do this to the stadium that way we can attract a new football team to our stadium and maybe host some pretty cool events inside Soldier Field
I love how they say a safe and secure transit station. Yeah right, I can see it now with all the ghetto drama coming in from our safe and secure CTA
I can't lie thus rendition would EPIC!! Only concern is parking STILL??
Parking prices: $100 per spot after this
NO THANKS. Arlington Heights DA BEARS are coming!
This is a cool rendering. I say put this in Arlington park including the shell and the old stadium can stay up as home of the Chicago fire
I like it Yes that keeper This looks AMAZING, and I'm sure a family of four can save for years and years just to get the chance to go to one game. Including parking, food, drinks, and game tickets that will cost that family of four a cool $2000 or maybe $4000 by the time it's completed. As a Chicagoan how phenomenal would this be?

As much as I enjoy this concept, I’d rather not mess with this iconic location any more than it has already been tampered with. We’ve already lost so much of this iconic venue architecture, that I’d hate to see it get overshadowed anymore. YES! I love this! I hope the Bears don't leave Soldier Field. Nothing wrong with Arlington Park, but it's not Soldier Field. I love what the video said... Build on our rich history! Only if they did right the first time!! But this is beautiful 🤩Mamma Mia!

I love my city GO CHICAGO BEARS 🧡💙🧡💙🧡 can't wait for the NEW STADIUM 🏟
Leave the city. That dome is too small. You still won't have leverage over this mayor. Make a totally NEW, from the ground up, state of the art domed stadium that would be the envy of the NFL in Arlington heights.
If this stadium opens, I can tell you right now, that row of retired numbers at 4:33 is going to be replaced with branding
Nah
Ok my personal opinion is this is actually pretty sick but I lowkey wanted a retractable dome 😢
yes, a retractable roof would be great. The cold weather has always been an advantage for the Bears.
Only if they did right the first time!! But this is beautiful 🤩
Still can't believe the Bears, the Freaking Chicago Bears!!! 🐻 Are leaving Chicago. 😔 This would be the best stadium in the league hands down. But they are still leaving, It just seems unreal. 😔😳
nobody is building that for a measly 2.2 billion
I don't think it's worth it knowing the Bears are leaving and there's like 5 or 6 home games a year. I'll pass
I'm a Chicagoan and love this, but realistically is there enough density in the area to support the One Central development? I could see somethign like this in NYC where there is a mass of people to support all of the businesses.
.... Of course there are plenty of people to support this idea... Especially when the infrastructure is mostly in place with mass transit. It's just about extending train lines and adding stations to the new stadium.... With this redevelopment it could attract a big time college football championship games, the super bowl, even world cup soccer games and even gives the city of Chicago and advantage for any Olympics bid... The problem here is that the property is owned by the city of Chicago.... And the Chicago Bears & the NFL will not allow all of this redevelopment that ONLY raises a revenue for the city of Chicago without a true partnership.... Instead of letting the Chicago Bears by the property in Arlington Heights the greedy city of Chicago should have thought about selling the lakes front property which Soldier Field currently stands on.... Also figured out a deal with the city on redevelopment for mass transit hub, hotels and convention center... Now they want to put out this proposal to keep Chicago's beloved team in the city when it might be a little too late.... The ownership of the Bears has already paid 300 plus million for the new proposed property in Arlington..... It's to see the situation so badly mismanaged
There is enough commercial density in downtown....this is a destination location, not just a secondary attraction. Chicago needs to solve its crime problem first, and then people will start returning to downtown....not before.
They should build it , doesn’t matter if the for the bears..mainly for concerts
Or probably attract a bowl game and maybe some top-level FBS games.
Chicago should build this even if the Bears move to Arlington. Get a new project to renovate Soldier Field and get a new NFL Franchise.
BINGO
Or the white sox move there.❤
They can’t you obviously don’t know how NFL rules work at all lol 😂
care to enlighten us
It's too late now Chicago, they're going to Arlington. Bears want to own.
Who's going to pay for this?
Chicagoans

Stick with. Soccer
I think this is beautiful and I hope it gets built
This is great - use it to bring a new team into the city. The McCaskeys want the ownership of the development around the suburban stadium and the city can never give them that massive revenue stream.
Now this is fire af
Looks great, but too late.
I’ve been in most major cities in the Midwest and LA, but Chicago is hands down my favorite!
question is could u go without getting shot at ?
This actually looks better than Allegiant Stadium 2 presented yesterday
if they build a new stadium and don’t go with this rendering i will legitimately stop supporting the team
If this is a reality, it could land Illinois's first Super Bowl.
His voice and words almost makes Chicago sound like a nice place.
I'm kind of on the fence on this one.
On the one hand, it's a great presentation. Quite imaginative. Something that the city has been talking about for decades and should be built.
But on the other hand, I don't think it would work for the Bears in that I strongly suspect that the Bears are looking for ownership of their facility. Not just be a lead tenant (paying rent to the City). For the teams history, they've never owned their own stadium. With Arlington Heights, they finally will. I think that's what's truly driving the Bears.
But the facility should be built. The transit portion would work beyond belief. The dome would give the city yet another year round facility that generates revenue for the city.
The point is : a major tenant (like the Bears) is needed for ROI.
If the Bears want to own their own stadium, they should pay for it ON THEIR OWN.
Don't stop them. They've made tons of money using Soldier Field and Chicago. Now.... let them move.
Recruit another NFL franchise to play in Soldier Field.
Mstephens - Bingo! The Bears want their own stadium, BUT they want Chicago taxpayers to pay for it.
This is the team that traded Roquan Smith, Kahlil Mack and ____Quinn. They did it to save $$$, not invest in it. The Bears want Chicgo to GIVE them money!
The McCaskeys care about enriching THEMSELVES, not entertaining Chicago fans.
I say, let them go to Arlington Hts. And Chicago should find another team who wants to play in Soldier Field.
I love Sofi but I wish they would have done this to the LA Colosseum. Keep the history but in a modern venue.
@@FEARNoMore Not everyone has Kroenke money, plus with the current Soldiers Field's Greco-Roman and modern mishmash look, I'm not down on it.
@@michaelskoomamacher5652Yeah that's the point dude. You can't demand or want to own a facility and not have the funds to build it. If the Bears and the NFL want their own facilities, THEY need to pay for it in full without city taxes or tax breaks. Otherwise they should quit their bitching.
This is a complete copy cat of Sofi Stadium in Los Angeles. Bears needs a brand new stadium that’s different from all other nfl stadiums.
Great idea. I love it
It looks like a beautiful place to get mugged. I can't wait. Go Chicago!
Just make it look like the old design for gods sake
Going to Arlington Heights, but you keep dreaming Beatlejuice.
Adding to what's still owed for the first renovation just to keep a tenant that uses the place 8 or 10 times a year has be one of the worst ideas ever.
If soldier field is domed, it will have a possibility to host at least one Super Bowl
it sounds like the narrator doesn't believe what he is saying
They need to realize the Bears want to own their stadium this does nothing for them Arlington Heights has so much more potential
WWE WrestleMania could be coming to Soldier field dome in Chicago, IL future when Soldier field renovation add install dome complete.
How do you know that? 🤔
It's over Chicago the 🐻 already got the new spot purchased....use that old mess for other stuff.
Looks a lot better than the copy/paste monstrosity the Bears proposed this year.
There is enough tourist/commercial density in downtown to support it and this is a destination location, not just a secondary attraction. Chicago needs to solve its crime problem first, and then locals will start returning to downtown....not before.
This is a heck of a lot better than what they unveiled yesterday.
This new lake front stadium will be the most famous and packed stadium in the whole US. Who wants to hang out in Arlington Height anyway? It's so stressful there.
So why didn’t they do this years ago instead of those millions wasted on that spaceship they have now ? the lack of common sense in Chicago is unbelievable .
The Bears have already bought the old Hawthorne Racetrack for their new stadium. I think this is too little too late. I know there were some issues with the new city but I’m sure they would’ve worked them out already.
Ironically it sounds like the Bears are gonna actually accept something similar to this
A day late and a dollar short
I love my city GO CHICAGO BEARS 🧡💙🧡💙🧡 can't wait for the NEW STADIUM 🏟
Looks Amazing 👏
Would be Sickkkk for Chicago
“Definition of a world class city” without proper transit throughout the city
Too little too late, the bears are gone!!!
“A day late and a dollar short”, Chicago Bears.
That works for me, my grandchildren can sit in the same arena as there grand dad and watch the worlds greatest team play in my honor
Like I did my dad
I was for the bears going to Arlington, but with this new stadium and the addition of adding One Central to the project now has me changing my mind. I just hope One Central gets the towers that was included inside the original concept. The only way this happens is if the bears stay, fingers crossed. I didn’t vote for lightfoot but she’s turning up the entertainment Chicago has been lacking, with Bally’s Resort Entertainment Casino and hopefully this I think will do wonders for this world class city.
Too dangerous......................
That's what people aren't understanding because they aren't familiar with One Central. The Bears have had interest in One Central before they purchased Arlington Heights as it gives the entertainment money they want.
@@Chicago_Jayhawk CTA yeah right
@@Chicago_Jayhawk Yeah I think if they can cut a deal with the city to pay for it and get some ownership rights within One Central they definitely will stay in Chicago.
@@nuancedliars112 so it’s too dangerous that Chicago should come to a screeching halt, stop all construction projects around the city because things are too dangerous…. If Foreign military tanks patrolling the streets then I would agree it’s too dangerous.
The Bears should absolutely do this, but I know they won't. They want their spaceship in the middle of the suburbs with their little lame casino. The venue will of course look nice.
But honestly, I'd prefer it if they stay at Soldier and just take the renovation.
The secret of this plan is the new transit center at cost a billion dollars plus. It will be major rail project.
If they can’t keep the Miracle Mile robust you know this a pipe dream.
As much as people want to ooh and aah about all these new amenities, I can't stand all these new stadiums. Domes take away the weather and atmosphere from games, which is part of what makes a game in Chicago so great. Those cold weather, snowy, foggy, etc games which are so iconic just can't happen when you have a dome. Outside of that, I don't need a world class hot dog that will cost me as much as a steak on 95th floor of the John Hancock building, I just want a good ole chicago dog that is reasonable, filling, and gives me the runs the next day. Which takes me to my next point, I'm never going to be able to go to this place even if I pay the taxes to build it. This is a place for the super rich with tons of suites and clubs, but no seating for the die hard fans. The cheapest tickets will end up being $1000, pricing out pretty much anybody who actually cares about the game being played. This is why LA doesn't have fans, how can you be a fan if you know you have to save up for years just to get 5 tickets to see a game with your family.
I agree with some of the things you said, but LA doesn't have fans because they just don't care. Always been that way. They only really care about the Dodgers and sometimes about the Lakers.
They cant de-list it from the National Historic Landmarks list twice.
Wheres the parking at?
😂 give it a rest Lori. It’s over. Moving to Arlington Hts is in the future. Fix the schools & the crime problem 😂
