Arlington Park Bears Stadium Master Plan includes a Dome and the need for Public Funding

So we finally got our first look at what the Chicago Bears‘ Arlington Park Stadium will look like…

Plans include a sky dome for the top of the new stadium. A dome was also proposed by Mayor Lori Lightfoot for Soldier Field. The park would also include restaurants, a hotel, a fitness center, new parks, and more.

The Bears aren’t planning on paying for all of this though… They hope to receive public funding for the project: it’s projected to be a very expensive one, and they still have that $84 million fine they would need to pay to break their Soldier Field lease.
