Chicago Fire Unveil New Renderings for Proposed $650 Million Stadium at The 78

  • The Chicago Fire Soccer Club revealed new renderings on Monday for a $650 million, 22,000-seat open-air stadium at The 78 in the South Loop.
  • This proposal follows the development of The 78, a 62-acre neighborhood on riverfront land formerly a landfill, purchased by Related Midwest in 2016.
  • Designed with a brick, steel, and glass facade, the stadium aims for an intimate fan experience and will host about 20 Fire games plus other events yearly.
  • Fire president Dave Baldwin emphasized that the new stadium will serve as a stronghold for the team and a welcoming place for supporters, while MLS Commissioner Don Garber described the project as a transformative step for soccer’s future in Chicago.
  • Construction is expected to start later in 2025 or early 2026, with completion targeted before the 2028 MLS season, aiming to catalyze investment and serve as an entertainment hub.
