Officials laid out a big new push to try to convince the Chicago Bears to remain in the Windy City, with a massive renovation of Soldier Field and the surrounding Museum Campus serving as the centerpiece for those proposals, but the team remains committed to going in a different direction.
According to the Bears, the only project the team is currently working toward is a new stadium development at the site of the former Arlington International Racecourse, and they reiterated that stance on Monday.
In fact, the team simply reissued their statement from earlier this month when the idea of a revitalized Soldier Field and Museum Campus was first floated by the city: “The only potential project the Chicago Bears are exploring for a new stadium development is Arlington Park. As part of our mutual agreement with the seller of that property, we are not pursuing alternative stadium deals or sites, including renovations to Soldier Field, while we are under contract. We have informed the City of Chicago that we intend to honor our contractual commitments as we continue our due diligence and predevelopment activities on the Arlington Heights property.
