With the sale of Arlington Racecourse International all but official at this point, people have waited to see what the Chicago Bears will do next. Obviously, the franchise aims to build themselves a new stadium, but the true groundwork for that hasn't been laid yet. However, that hurdle is in the process of being cleared. The next step towards a move out of Soldier Field became a reality when the organization found the architects they wanted for the job.
According to Don Muret of Venues Now, it was revealed the Bears have hired MANICA Architecture to assist in the plans for a new stadium on the Arlington property. They will play a key role in designing the stadium itself, figuring out the best specifications to fit the land, and what ownership seeks in a new building. MANICA has worked on several notable projects over the years. Among NFL fans, they are best known for their work on Allegiant Stadium, the Las Vegas Raiders' gorgeous new venue in Nevada.
"The Chicago Bears have selected Manica Architecture to help with initial plans for their proposed NFL stadium at the site of Arlington International Racecourse in the city’s northwest suburbs, team officials confirmed. Manica is helping the team with conceptual design as part of their due diligence on the property, officials said."
