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? I would absolutely love it! But as a Chicago realist this seems no more feasible than visiting the planet Krypton, Superman’s home-world.

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

Not a Chicagoan, but to see Soldier Field transformed into this would be pretty sweet. It would definitely be a destination.

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. 🏛️

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.

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.

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.

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

Bears are still going to Arlington Heights. Too little too late.

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

If I’m the Bears I’m saying “thank you for the ideasss & good luck after ‘24” 😂😂

If this happens there will definitely be a superbowl in Chicago

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 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.

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

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.

This would be amazing if this happens!

Totally awesome but I think it is too late 😢

Only one problem bears want own it so no go

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

This will be a great stadium for another NFL AFC team

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) ✅

Parking prices: $100 per spot after this NO THANKS. Arlington Heights DA BEARS are coming!

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.

Build that... but in Arlington Heights.

City can barely control the cta 💀

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 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

Now even a bears fan but Best stadium in the league hands down

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

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!

Only if they did right the first time!! But this is beautiful 🤩

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!

Why not level it and then build it from bottom up?

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.

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. 😔😳

doesn’t solve any problems, we need a bigger stadium and better parking. please move to arlington

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.

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 can't lie thus rendition would EPIC!! Only concern is parking STILL??

Ok my personal opinion is this is actually pretty sick but I lowkey wanted a retractable dome 😢

Who's going to pay for this?

how bout some parking and tailgate areas

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

I think this is beautiful and I hope it gets built

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.

That is impressive and looks amazing as a Proud Chicagoan-Italian 🇮🇹 I would love for the Chicago Bears to stay in the City of Chicago! This would be amazing if this happened! I love my city GO CHICAGO BEARS 🧡💙🧡💙🧡 can't wait for the NEW STADIUM 🏟

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

nobody is building that for a measly 2.2 billion

They should build it , doesn’t matter if the for the bears..mainly for concerts

Mamma Mia! That is impressive and looks amazing as a Proud Chicagoan-Italian 🇮🇹 I would love for the Chicago Bears to stay in the City of Chicago!

if they build a new stadium and don’t go with this rendering i will legitimately stop supporting the team

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

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.

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.

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.

It's over Chicago the 🐻 already got the new spot purchased....use that old mess for other stuff.

If this is a reality, it could land Illinois's first Super Bowl.

Great idea. I love it

This actually looks better than Allegiant Stadium 2 presented yesterday

It's too late now Chicago, they're going to Arlington. Bears want to own.

It looks like a beautiful place to get mugged. I can't wait. Go Chicago!

Looks great, but too late.

Just make it look like the old design for gods sake

I’ve been in most major cities in the Midwest and LA, but Chicago is hands down my favorite!

His voice and words almost makes Chicago sound like a nice place.

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 .

Going to Arlington Heights, but you keep dreaming Beatlejuice.

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.

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.

They need to realize the Bears want to own their stadium this does nothing for them Arlington Heights has so much more potential

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

I love my city GO CHICAGO BEARS 🧡💙🧡💙🧡 can't wait for the NEW STADIUM 🏟

Looks a lot better than the copy/paste monstrosity the Bears proposed this year.

it sounds like the narrator doesn't believe what he is saying

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.

Looks Amazing 👏

50 years to late. The last renovation to Solider field was a waste of money and destroyed the history and landmark of Soldier field. This still does not resolve the issue the Chicago Bears will not have the rights to Solider field and be 100% owner for the team to be 100% profitable as well off season. Also Solider field does not allow to have less expensive seats for all income of families can attend a Chicago Bears game. We have lost tail gating in the parking lot at Soldier field. lost parking and now with this new idea will take away parking from the historical museums? Less and Less families are leaving the City of Chicago and don't come into the city for entertainment or awesome shopping anymore. Restaurants, Retailers are closing their doors in the City of Chicago because of huge crime, theft and less restaurant goers and shoppers. This will not be convincing to Chicago Bears franchise to stay. The Chicago Bears have acquired the perfect piece of property to invest in and bring money in from developing this property with on property hotels, restaurants, shopping, entertainment district steps away from the stadium and Papa George Halas had considered Arlington Heights many years ago wanting to leave Solider Field for Arlington Heights. Easy access by steps to front door by Metra train with train stop right there buses and car. Many local city hotels access to the stadium location as Schaumburg's convention center very close by less than !0 min away can buss hotel guest right to the stadium and drop them off steps away from the front door for less expensive hotel stay and close to a convention center hotel. They will bring back a tail gating area for tail gating fans and plenty of safe close parking for all fans to come to a game in Arlington Heights. If Chicago Bears franchise future is near or preparing to sell the franchise after Virginia McCaskey passes away the family can sell all or keep a share of stock. The McCaskey family, great grand children will be set for life and the franchise can go from 4 Billion in value to 100 to 200 Billion to highest Buyer to purchase this historical franchise with owning their own stadium and huge real estate property. Chicago cannot compete with 326 acres in Arlington Heights Race Track property The McCaskey family want to complete the purchase. Chicago Bears are moving and they will be gone by 2026 to break their lease with Chicago Park District. Just wait and see big news coming this spring they finish the purchase of the property and more details of their future plans when they can break ground for the new stadium. There will not be any NFL expansion team playing at solider field the NFL will not allow it. No franchise will make any money they will not own it but be owned Chicago Park district with rent. Soldier field will be a summer stadium by the lake front for Chicago Park district events, mainly summer soccer and concerts or maybe Chicago Blackhawks outdoor winter fest game being hosted there from time to time, maybe? City Chicago is broke they need that money to clean up that City of Crime, homelessness and poverty. City of Chicago and State tax payers still have not paid off the first renovation to Soldier Field? Chicago Bears will stay Chicago Bears only NFC NFL team in the Chicago Market moving to Arlington Heights like all other NFL teams who have moved out of their own big Cities which they once played.

WWE WrestleMania could be coming to Soldier field dome in Chicago, IL future when Soldier field renovation add install dome complete.

Would be Sickkkk for Chicago

If soldier field is domed, it will have a possibility to host at least one Super Bowl

Ironically it sounds like the Bears are gonna actually accept something similar to this

Too little too late, the bears are gone!!!

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.

A day late and a dollar short

U got to do this beautiful city please 🙏 let this happen ❤️ Chicago could Host the super bowl and many more events

“Definition of a world class city” without proper transit throughout the city

This is a heck of a lot better than what they unveiled yesterday.

It's still Chicago with Mayor Beetlejuice hence crime crime crime will go unpunished.

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.

I peed in a porta potty inside the stadium

Soldier field:: Where gun shots through the night replaces fireworks...........

I’m not firm Chicago, I’m from Wisconsin. As much as I enjoy this concept, I’d rather not mess with this iconic location anymore than it has already been tampered with. We’ve already lost so much of this iconic venues architecture, I’d hate to see it get overshadowed anymore.

question is could u go without getting shot at ?

All of these new stadium proposals are being built for the upper class while taxing the middle class to build them.

The secret of this plan is the new transit center at cost a billion dollars plus. It will be major rail project.

“A day late and a dollar short”, Chicago Bears.
