The Washington Commanders' plan to build a new stadium at the RFK Stadium site in Washington, D.C. has been approved by the D.C. Council. The $3.8 billion project, involving a $2.7 billion team contribution and $1.1 billion from the city, includes housing, green space, and a sports complex. The team, which currently plays in Maryland, aims for a 2030 opening. While there were last-minute concerns raised by the team about council demands, the bill passed 11-2 and will now go to the mayor. The project is hailed as the largest economic development project in D.C.'s history.
