The Chicago Bears want to build a stadium in their own backyard

Bears CEO Kevin Warren announcing today the team is now looking to build a domed stadium around the south parking lot of Soldier Field. Warren says the team will contribute over 2 billion dollars for a new stadium. The Bears originally planned to build a new stadium in Arlington Heights. Although building a new stadium along the lakefront may be a tough fight, groups like the Friends of the Lakefront, could take issue with the site.
