The Washington Commanders released the first conceptual renderings of their new roofed stadium, which will be a year-round venue for sports, entertainment and community engagement, the team announced.
The design firm HKS, the architect on the project, also designed NFL stadiums such as SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
The stadium, tentatively slated to open in 2030, will be on the site of the old Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium, located in southeast Washington, D.C., which was the team's home for 36 seasons.
The Commanders have played their home games at Northwest Stadium in Landover, Maryland, since 1997.
The capacity of the proposed $3.7 billion stadium is expected to be around 70,000, with a colonnade and an east–west axis in deference to the U.S. Capitol and the Washington Monument.
