Mayor Lori Lightfoot is making a push to keep the Chicago Bears out of the suburbs.
Lightfoot and a mayoral committee is apparently set to recommend that the city “explore the feasibility” of renovating and even adding a dome to Soldier Field, according to Crain’s Chicago Business.
It’s unclear how much such renovations would cost, though it could reportedly be anywhere between $400 million to $1.5 billion.
The reported plan comes after the Bears entered an agreement to purchase land for a potential new stadium in Arlington Heights — which sits just northwest of O’Hare International Airport and about 30 miles from Soldier Field and downtown Chicago.
