Overview
- New HKS images were filed to the National Capital Planning Commission and the Commission of Fine Arts as part of the design review process.
- The domed venue is planned for the former RFK site with a target opening in 2030 and programming positioned for year-round use with more than 200 events.
- Reported seating capacity varies by outlet, with figures ranging from about 65,000 to up to 70,000 as designs continue to be refined.
- Plans frame the stadium within a larger RFK campus that includes housing, green space, a sports complex, a neighborhood gathering area and a stage for large events.
- Demolition of the old RFK began last year, construction is expected to start next year, and the move would return the team to Washington after decades in Maryland.
