Once RFK Stadium is demolished, the Washington Commanders will partner with Events DC to build their brand-new $1.95 billion 85,000-seat state-of-the-art retractable-roof stadium at RFK site, which will open for the 2027 NFL season.

I don't see the DC voters approving a publicly funded stadium.. And with the crazy inflation and how expensive everything is in DC, no way a state of the art domed stadium will cost only 1.95 billion However, DC politics are so shady that a backdoor deal using some public funds might happen smh

And the mayor and city council have made the streets smaller by installing more bike lanes and pedestrian crosswalk medians and decreasing the speed limit to 20mph AND putting up and maintaining speeding cameras IN THE CITY.

By them having already built a town center right down the block it could bring in even more jobs for the citizens of the our city plus creating a mixed use development area. Metro is the number one advantage for the stadium. Not all true long term Washington fans have cars to drive to va or md to see a game. SO yes, I am in favor of them bringing the football team back to the people of DC....

Thank you! Capital One Arena has a parking garage underground and some other parking garages nearby. Same with Nationals Park. Its a parking garage attached to the stadium and mainly ppl ride the metro to the games or get an uber or lyft. Pretty sure its the same setup for Audi Field. The only way this thing will work is to build 3-4 levels of parking in an underground parking garage and have the stadium sit on top. But can u imagine being buried behind countless cars and having to wait more than 3 hrs just to get out of the garage and onto the highway to get home??? Not a good idea and a new stadium should be built right near the national harbour

To me it’ll be like fedex field 2.0 only it’ll be a bunch of homes, a jail, dc armory, a high school, metro, and the fields playground all around the new stadium. Where will additional parking be? It will be hell going on that 295 interchange to get to the highway. Theres no bars or restaurants near the stadium either. Then the traffic patterns on city streets is horrible. The city council and idiot mayor recently have had ddot install pedestrian crosswalk medians and more bike lanes which is mayor bowser’s vision zero initiative to make traffic slower and prevent pedestrians from getting struck and killed by cars. So the streets have gotten strunk. Then its countless speed cameras around the city with a 20-25mph speed limit.

The funny thing about all this -- and i speak as someone who has spent his whole adult life in DC, is that the Cowboys have as many fans here as the Commanders do. It's pretty close to 50/50 it seems.

@@kibitznec700 that about half of the people who by virtue of living in DC will be contributing to the building of the stadium thru their local tax dollars don't like the team they are paying for at all, and in fact like that team's main rival.

Simply not true. The team has been bad for a long time, and Snyder made a lot of people sour on attending games. My brother lives in Texas. There are MANY Commanders fans there as well. Neither is 50/50. This team gets back on track, it'll be a different story.

I'd rather watch a game in a 60 year old RFK rotting shell than in another generic dome. Take the elements out of the NFL, and the league will turn into a glorified arena football league.

Research Research!! Knocking down RFK has no effect on building a new stadium. The new stadium is not going to where RFK was located. The new stadium would be closer to the river and by the jail which actually with the trail built on the waterfront would put the stadium closer to Nat's Stadium. Where RFK is located is going to be either ball fields or retail. There were no delays because of the ownership change, Dan wanted a free stadium and that was never going to happen.

As someone who lives in the DMV area they will not let another stadium be built there because what happened with nationals park. It pushed a lot of low income families and houses out with no where to go. All the footprint isn’t big enough for parking plus there’s no bars in the area let alone places to really shop. They’re going to turn it into another park or buildings for at risk youth. Trust me. I’m still surprised the caps and wiz deal actually got done with dc. But there’s no modern infrastructure in the area as far as using it for other events. Like capital is in china town tons of shops and bars many things to do. Nationals park they built tons of apartments and retail and can support the stadium year round and keep fans in the area far beyond the end of the game. The RFK site will be hard pressed to do so especially with alot of low income housing in-the area that would have to be bought out and they’re already pissed about most of dc becoming “gentrified”

No Washington, DC football stadium should have a roof...and either change the name BACK to "Redskins", or just name 'em the HOGS. After all, what IS DC but a political "trough" or PORK BARREL? The reason why the NFL venue needs to be open to the element is simple...once it rains, which of course, it DOES a LOT in October and November, any grass field becomes a MUD PIT, and the "Hogs" are in their ELEMENT, UNBEATABLE.

@@ousamaabdu794 The general public has no power in this deal. The people who control DC's purse strings have power. OF COURSE it will be publicly funded. No general public based challenge to this is possible, or would ever succeed. The money involved in that 2 way transaction between the team and the DC purse strings buys BOTH parties in that transaction tons of insulation from your so called "general public". You;re in for a rude awakening because what you are saying won't be how the new stadium is funded IS IN FACT PRECISELY how the new stadium will be funded. OR THERE WILL BE NO NEW STADIUM IN DC.

Just wished this had happened sooner. It is a embarrassment the national capital was left off the 2026 world cup list bc there is no Fifa approved stadium. Only two other times did this happen in history, Germany 1974 & Japan 2002. As a DC resident I've never met any one who had something positive to say about the Redskins/Washington FC/Commanders ownership.

Im from Washington DC and i just have one question: if they do build a new stadium for the REDSKINS (Not calling them the commanders smh) where would they make extra parking? Theres this new multi use area adjacent to RFK called: The Fields. So basically its a playground area for kids, a soccer field, mini football field, tennis court, and basketball court all next to each other. Before they redeveloped that space, it was nothing but parking space for RFK. DC is small enough as it is. And check this, DC jail is close by RFK; however last time i was home, the city was building new condos right across the street from the Jail. Maybe they will build a nice sized underground parking garage like the Superdome has because like i said, there wont be enough room for parking lots.
