The Washington, D.C. Council unanimously approved a $3.7 billion deal to build a new Commanders stadium at the site of the old RFK Stadium. The vote clears the final legislative hurdle, sending the bill to Mayor Bowser for her signature. The project, slated to open in 2030, includes a 65,000-seat stadium, housing, and a sports complex. Team owner Josh Harris hailed the decision as historic, while Mayor Bowser emphasized the economic benefits for the city. The Commanders will contribute $2.7 billion to the construction.
