Predictably and officially, the Bears have turned their stadium attention back to Arlington Heights.
Less than two months after the team switched its public messaging to reflect that their sole focus was no longer on building a downtown stadium, it went a step further Friday.
In a statement, the Bears said they were focused on building on the 326-acre property they own in Arlington Heights.
“Over the last few months, we have made significant progress with the leaders in Arlington Heights, and look forward to continuing to work with state and local leaders on making a transformative economic development project for the region a reality,” the team said in a statement.
