Hope the millionaires and billionaires benefitting from the stadium are the ones handling the costs.
Bears are a Chicago team. We pay for it as a community. The billionaires already donated their time and effort. It’s your turn to pay.
@@-.TS.- Good bit.
I'm not sure but I think McCaskey didn't want to pay prop taxes in Arlington Heights. Although I'm not sure what the prop tax situati8on would be on the lake front, maybe much less or nothing?
Spoiler- They're not
@@-.TS.-and you’re ok with that or no?
My taxes went up just from watching this video.
They said they won’t be introducing any new taxes to the people of Chicago. Laid out the whole payment plan, it’s pretty impressive
@LucaTradez True they did say that but concentrate on what they didn't say. They didn't say that tax money wouldn't pay for it just that no new taxes will be introduced. That doesn't mean they can't pull from a pile of tax money Chicago already has. Money that should go towards replacing the lead pipes or schools, potholes, u name it
So did mine and I don't live in Chicago or even the USA. 😂
@LucaTradez hahaha that's cute you believe that. We are 40 billion in debt on city pensions. They will 100% tax us and probably state residents for this
LOL youre paying for at least half of it.@@LucaTradez
We just gonna park in the water like the drunk mfs on Friday nights😂
fuck parking
😂
Yo that's hilarious😅😅😅😅😅
🤣
Stadium design reminds me of the allegiant one in vegas.
Spectacular indeed. Build this beauty, and everyone will come. Simply Magnificent. ❤
Now can we see the $2.5B version 100% paid for by the Bears
So where do we park ?
Phase 2 was saying double Decker Parking in the south lot.
McCormick
@@donnellydagreat5509 Double decker parking for 30,000 + cars? Right. That's got to be bigger than the stadium itself.
You walk with your legs
@jamesporter3761 no shit
The Chicago Mayor needs to fix the CTA first. Without good public transportation this is nothing but waste of funds.
Need to build up public transit to the area to bring in long-term revenue for the city.
There's an electrified Metra stop right next to the existing stadium, and it's pitifully underutilized.
One chicago had so much opportunity to boost this are
It's an interesting concept. The problem with the South Loop and Lakefront area. Is the public transportation for the whole entire Metro Area. There needs to be a feeder rail connector. Meaning you can run rail services to Union Pacific, Milwaukee Road, BNSF and Joliet. The Bus connectors do not work at the Museum Campus, Soldier Field. You need to be with a 1/4 to 3/8 of a mile from the front door. The Arlington Heights serves the entire Metro area in the Real Estate catchment area. This project is nothing but a Son of 10 shoeboxes and a Pullman Porter fantasy.
10-15 walk to Roosevelt is too far for you ? 😮
Phase 1🤦🏽🐻👇
They need to make a bridge connecting the stadium yo the train station
Holy smokes when this is done I’ll be traveling from cali to watch my bears!
*if
You’re a fool.
@@salvasaur let's hope we get our new stadium built too....
@@collydub1987 Taxpayers covering costs for two stadiums sounds like a lot, but if something reasonable can be worked out...🤞🏾
Honestly, if I had to choose between the two, I'd go Bears. Soldier Field is trash. At least Comiskey is well maintained
@@salvasaur a little part of me is worried that if we don't get the 78 we might relocate to Nashville. I know that would be insane for Jerry to do, but I wouldn't put it past him. I agree that sox park is a decent stadium. Just needs more amenities around it.
The only thing I gained from this video is a beautiful venu with absolutely zero parking. Hope there's a part 2 (same music) showcasing all the new parking that will be available lol
Soldier Field had me walking a half marathon from my parked car to the stadium haha
Talented roster, number one pick with finally a talented QB heading your way, a new stadium too (probably).....
Bears fans have a real reason to be excited.
This looks awesome love it
You’re a fool.
The outside looks better than the inside
looks cool. i'll believe it when i see it.
Megs field and the ones still available and there will be a parking garage
Unless I'm missing something, it looks like there is literally no parking which is the biggest complaint of the current stadium. Nobody wants to tailgate in a parking garage.
Tailgating isn't even allowed in parking garages. They literally have removed at least half of the existing parking with this plan. They are even saying they might turn the remaining part of the south lot into a parking garage. This whole plan is a joke. It doesn't do anything for the current two biggest problems. Parking and Traffic to the stadium. The plan makes small improvements directly at the stadium but does nothing for actually getting to the city from the suburbs.
I swear people search for something to complain about, You don’t even know all the details yet.
@@commonsense3921 I have seen the renderings, watched their press conference, and read the letter they sent to all season ticket holders. From everything you can tell our complaints are warranted. This plan is not a good one.
@@Scott-ou2iz Agree, What are the Bears actually doing to make this a better FAN FRIENDLY experience? Baseball/football fields are not fan friendly. Not a large entertainment village/restuarants, no tailgating that I can see, parking garage is in one single place so every car is going into the same place on the same side of the field? It will be a cluster &#^!%!. Still an overall pain in the butt place to get to to see a game.
What do u think the are going to put under all that park space!
the big windows are a cool concept if its gonna be enclosed
I believe the renderings illustrate clearly that it's a fixed roof facility.
The stadium design from the outside. Looks like a giant George Foreman grill 😂 🤣
You would have thought they learned their lesson after the Soldier Field "renovation"
It looks like Allegiant stadium And like the new Titans stadium inside. Both of which are like the stadium this firm designed for the Chargers which didn't happen. $2.5 Billion for a cookie-cutter stadium. What a joke.
It looks great but what about the parking thats very important whens it comes down to it Arlington Heights is the best plan to build it has way more land and space and that just the reality of it🐻
Looks insane! I can’t wait
You’ll be paying for it fool.
The same mfs living this are going to be the same mfs complaining about everythings expensive
You're spending $2 billion to have a carbon copy of Allegiant Stadium, which you won't even own. You show renderings of public spaces, which never are utilized like that in reality. It will still be the most inaccessible place for a major stadium. The CTA train system doesn't even reach the stadium directly. Your taking away the only usable parking deck and didn't substantially address parking in your presentation today. Platitudes for the sake of getting money from the city, state, and federal governments. Billionaires shouldn't ask for public funds.
Pay for it yourself people should never have access to the public spaces shown here. You can stay at least a mile away from the stadium
LOVE IT!!!!
Go Bears!
WOW!! Bear Down and FGB!!
I love it, awesome project.
I'm so excited I can't wait GO BEARS 🧡💙💯🐻⬇️🧡💙
Congratulations to CHICAGO BEARS drafted '24 ROOKIE CLASS, CALEB WILLIAMS! Smart move!
I’m excited
Guys it’s got STRENGTHENED SYNERGIES. We have to do it.
Im glad im not the only one excited about strengthened museum synergy!!!!
I think it translates to 10 percent off coupons for Tuesday museum trips!
Awesome!!!
As someone who doesn't live in Chicago anymore, looks great!
Can't wait to see it!
You gotta have a retractable roof so we can play games outside when the Superbowl happens close the roof
Put a Dome on Soldier Field already. In July 2022 that project was estimated to be 2.2 billion. Enough said.
I am just dreading the name. I can’t wait for Hulu+ stadium
But I was told that the bears wanted to evacuate from the city, why are they moving 10 feet?
I love daydreaming of what the future might hold for Chicago.
All I gotta ask is where is the parking?
Train
Underground
Except this makes the stadium even farther from CTA/Metra stops
@@PheeblePhilosopherenjoy tailgating underground LOL
@@jakubpiechnik6294by 5 mins on foot ? 😂
This looks good but I prefer the Soldier Field renovation
This looks like something I could build in madden. 😂
The bears ain't going anywhere but Chitown
Bears about to cook
Who cares. 🙄
lol it was obvious they were playing games with the Arlington site. It’s not the Tri-state area (NY/NJ)… where the Giants don’t play in the city but it all feels interconnected out there.
Here.. the city vs burb ambiance is super obvious. And no, this isn’t an insult to Arlington Heights or Schaumburg, I quite enjoy those 2 burbs, but it’s just different…
The lakefront w/ the skyline & museums nearby was the best choice…
Can we get a Harold's, McDonald's in the stadium😂
That was the blackest comment ever
I saw a Harold's truck at Hallas Hall during last year's training camp. It was like $14 for 4 wings.
@@blackitolism3000 pass at that price.
I like my football outside
Double that price tag. You know politicians and bureaucrats gotta have their kickbacks, ESPECIALLY in Chicago.
That's what will bring Chicago together, a new stadium.
Ha!!
Edit- 1 more !
Roomba Stadium!!!🎉
It is time Chicago get some positive things going on and not just new stadium on the lakefront but far more.
So much for the idea of not building another alien spaceship next to the lake.
I don’t live in Illinois anymore. But as soon as that stadium is built, I’m coming to a game. Can’t wait for this upcoming season. Haven’t been this excited in a while.
Me since Ditka returned
Don’t hold your breath. The governor don’t want it
If you're going to copy Las Vegas, why not add the torch too?
Fixed roof? Lame. Going to miss those snowy rainy games at Soldier Field.
That's what i said I'm not even a bears fan and i said the bears are going to have a dome stadium now.
I was like yeah the NFL is definitely going downhill the last 10 years or so.
You got a lot of bears fans in the comments section happy about the idea. I can tell a lot of these people in the comments are new age bears fans.
I'm a Eagles fan the Eagles better not think about building a dome stadium in Philadelphia.
Spaceship II The Sequel??
Looks like the Alligiant stadium .
Nice New Stadium Chicago Bears
Nailed it! Looks great.
It’s dope but the El is too far, need to get the public transpiration figured out
There is one way in and one way out. This is a huge mistake.
Ready in 2038... probably
But.... where's the parking?
parking is what ruins the stadium
@@malon9776 Okay.. but if you have no parking, how are you supposed to fill that stadium?
@@earlbonovich6912 Everyone is gonna have to take the red line to Roosevelt lmao what a shit show
Parking will be on the outlet they build and looking from the lake, to the left of the stadium
Theyre going to get rid of Solider Field the offseson before the new stadium is ready?
They said they would play at soldier field until the new stadium is open. Alluding to that the take down of soldier field wouldn’t happen until the new stadium is playable.
🔥🔥🔥
As a fan of the Bears and the Field museum, I cannot wait for this new stadium. That entire museum campus is going to look amazing, and the Field museum is going to get a little more space for people to bask in its beauty, while also enjoying a nice park. The current set up there now, the stadium makes walking around dismal. That new park will encourage year round visitors to Northerly Island and the museum campus. This will improve the city in so many ways. I am in shock with how amazing this turned out.
Or leave Northerly Island alone and keep the stadium where it is.
So you want to build a stadium on the parking lot, then not have any new parking lots?
It Looks Beautiful ❤️
No thank you. Enjoy Arlington Heights!
I love it
Walter Payton stadium
Payton Stadium
Or
Sweetness Field
You got to honor him with the stadium
Unless his family has more money than a bank, his name won't be near the stadium name. He'll be lucky if he gets a plaque
Guess half of you didn’t watch the whole presentation live or didn’t pay attention
Of course they didn't
So you assume that if people complain about it they didn't watch the video? Bro look at this objectively and tell the world where will there be tailgating allowed? On a parking garage? Or what use do fans have with baseball/football fields on game day? Where is the large entertainment village/restuarants? All parking is at one single location on one side of the stadium?
@@chazzhammer425 not referring to that I’m talking about the funds
Man!! Slow as hell! 😂😂😂😂
I turned it off when they started praying......for a football stadium. Disgusting.
Still going to suck getting in and out of with absolutely no parking as well. Go to Arlington and the land you purchased
Fuck Arlington we the Chicago Bears
@@Devin-lw7hv Not like Arlington Heights isn’t Chicagoland. Probably easier to get to for most fans with enough income to buy Bears tickets than the Near South Side.
@@MisterCautiontheres only like 10 counties in Illinois that arent losing population and most of them are NW of Chicago.
So Arlington Heights works
@@DaleGribble1 I know it works. AH is even easier to get to from wealthier burbs like Naperville than the Near South Side. And it’s probably easier to get to from most of the North Side if going by car or Uber.
Make it happen, Kevin Warren. Daniel Burnham would have his lakefront vision fulfilled! Bear Down!
If there is a Super Bowl there, I’m spending my moneys worth
You sure will be.🙄
Yep...thats the one.....this gona happen...Bear down...Chitown
They belong here period
I still don't understand how it's legal to have tax payers build a stadium for your business.
Anyone want to combine forces for a new football team, have random people from city X pay for it, and then sell the team for 2 billion?
It's just a total scam at this point. Seeing fans cheer and applaud this is just gross and sad. There's a segment of the fanbase that has no idea the NFL is just taking advantage of the fans now. I know everyone loves watching the games every fall, they love the stars, the plays, the atmosphere...but when they're trying to charge $5 billion for a stadium that probably really costs $300 million...goodbye. We've got Netflix and Prime. This isn't worth it anymore.
Its a public owned facility/land. The Bears won't own it.
So the bears won't employ private security to monitor this complex? This is going to be worse than millennium park
Oh great even less parking!
So does Kevin Warren work for the Bears or the city?
He sure does seem to be doing his best to make sure the city gets the Bears. I hope the Bears ownership sees through Warrens obvious bias towards the city, and says no freaking way are we going to build an average stadium that we WON'T own, and deal with Chicago politics forever. Instead of going to AH where the rest of the sane world would go to maximize profits and more importantly FAN EXPERIENCE.
Soldier field is so unique and has so much history. And like labeau, its a huge home field advantage for winter games. This new stadium sucks
Soooooo what are we gonna do with all the land we bought?
Sell it? Build a practice complex? Doesn’t matter all that much. McCaskeys aren’t gonna lose money on the big ass plot of real estate they bought
The mccaskeys are still intendending to build the casino I belive 2:47
Looks exactly like the Raiders stadium 🧐
Nope, Raiders a better and futuristic looking
That's because the same firm designed it
Bear down baby!
This is awesome!!!
Are you guys going to stay in Chicago or go the place by the highway?
Hopefully by the highway. I’m hoping this is a stunt
Hopefully, we can finally post a wrestlemania in style
It’s for the Bears. Not crappy wrestling.
Let's make it happen
So they not leaving now
Avg household income in the city is like $55k, avg. household income in the suburbs is like $125K give or take. Bears go forward with this plan the Bears will be forever relegated to an average NFL team/stadium/fan experience at best. Chicago Bears as usually blow the opportunity to chase greatness by foregoing the chance to build a much better stadium/entertainment villiage in AH. But hey the Bears fans from the suburbs with a ton of money in their pockets I'm sure will spend so much time using those baseball fields. LOL
It's a culture problem. Mr 10 shoeboxes, friends of Cottage Grove and Mo and Onk don't like suburbs. The City is Bankrupt.
What a jerk!!!!
A lot of bears fans love the idea of staying in the city. At the beginning when it was first said they might go to Arlington people were throwing a fit
@@mystimallow yeah losers who are happy with living like a 3rd rate team in the NFL.
beautiful.......now, where exactly are all of the fans going to park!!?
What's the capacity going to be?
What does this mean for the Chicago Fire? Are they gonna also use the new bears stadium or move back to Toyota Park/Seatgeek Stadium?
Jordan loves new crib looking fire 🔥
Shouldn't you be picking cheerleaders from the pasture?
No parking?
Looks like plenty of spaces to park a yacht.
Arlington Heights😂
Train
Just Do It!
Raiders need to sue the Titans and Bears for copyright Allegiant Stadium
I'm a fan!!! ❤
Privately funded this time right? Since the last time Chicago paid for a stadium it went soooo well that we only owe 630 million on the stadium you guys want to bull doze over
Right, they should just add on all of the stuff they're envisioning here to what's already there. Build around the current Soldier Field. Modify what's already on the stadium and put a retractable roof on it how about that?
Google exists.
@@ReadIcculus93 You sure their comment wasn't tongue-in-cheek and not an actual question?
where do you park all the cars ????
It's a city, if you want to park your car move the stadium to the suburbs
Seating not vertical enough, way too much like an old college bowl style stadium.
I cried
Even as a Packers fan, why the hell are you not using that $2 billion on Arlington Park? You bought the land, use that money to build your stadium with room for upgrades. Theres already a train station RIGHT THERE! Ik the city wants the Bears to stay in the city, but my fuckin god, just make everyone's life easier and build your stadium in Arlington Heights
Dang, this stadium is big for everything the Bulls could play at this Stadium
Would be a shitty experience watching the Bulls play in that stadium.
Basketball games usually don't work well in football stadiums because of the size of the court compared to the size of a football field.
@@qaxcgyujmYet sadly the Final Four is forced to be played in these stadiums now almost every year.
@@reverend_wintondupreeya when the final four is in football stadiums they wanna focus more on seating capacity than actual viewing experience.
@@qaxcgyujm No kidding
Jebus man. Take it back on notch on the music.
Where's the parking? All these activities and not one parking lot in sight.
Phase 2: a dbl Decker Parking garage and a tailgate area
