The Washington Commanders have finalized a deal to construct a new stadium at the historic RFK Stadium site, where they experienced significant success from 1961 to 1996. The announcement is slated for Monday, though the financial specifics, rumored to surpass $3 billion, remain undisclosed. Mayor Muriel Bowser's redevelopment plans for the 174-acre area include not just a stadium but also housing, parking, retail spaces, and recreational facilities. However, the plan faces potential hurdles as it requires D.C. Council approval, amidst concerns over the use of taxpayer funds.
"Washington struck a deal to play where RFK Stadium - the team's home from 1961-96 - still stands. An announcement is expected Monday morning."
"Terms of the deal have not yet been announced, though multiple outlets reported earlier this month that the cost would exceed $3 billion."
