As the Chicago Bears look for a new stadium deal, a move to Indiana seems likely.
On Tuesday, the Bears announced that they would be focusing on the Hammond site for their new venue. The announcement came after a vote from the team’s board of directors, marking the first time the board had voted on a new stadium site.

“We believe a world-class stadium project in Hammond will transform the region, connecting Northwest Indiana to the South Side of Chicago through the Loop and across neighborhoods and suburbs stretching north of the city,” chairman George McCaskey and CEO Kevin Warren said. “It will bring Chicagoland together and deliver new opportunities for its residents and businesses.”
