The State of Ohio is also funding major updates to Cleveland Hopkins Airport with 3 billion dollars over 10 years. I think the airport and the Browns need to work together to build a train station to the stadium and a land bridge. This would provide easy access for major events, along with a hotel on the Browns' side for guests. This could be a one-stop shop for future events if the airport and the Browns collaborate. Additionally, there should be train access from the Browns' training facilities to their new stadium, allowing fans in Berea Ohio to use it as well, all connected to the airport and stadium. If NFL players or free agents can fly into the airport and hop on a train to visit the stadium and training facilities without navigating traffic, the options are endless. No NFL stadium has airport near its stadium, this could be very unique opportunity. As well have train access from downtown cleveland to the stadium, to keep traffic down.
There's a good reason why no NFL team plays in a stadium next to an airport my friend. That's bcuz it doesn't matter whether you're playing in a dome stadium or not it's still gonna be a big distraction for the fans, the players, & the game itself when there's huge jet air liners flying overhead in & out of the airport every single minute of the day. You really believe a dome will absorb & deflect the sound of a jet airplane? 🤔 C'mon Man! Just saying...
Looks amazing, it needs to happen. Our existing stadium won't withstand the next lease agreement. I was just there for Summerslam on Saturday and it really is such a rundown place anymore. Lots of great memories though!
I'm torn between an open and domed field. I feel the elements have always been a part of Cleveland football, BUT I understand what the dome could and will attract. A dome will 100% qualify Cleveland for a Super Bowl host.
i hope to god they don't make the new stadium in BROOK PARK! It's a big enough mess around there anyways, and i-480 is going to be swamped with traffic, and i-71 too!
The Haslam are some of the richest owners in the NFL. Brook Park is technically outside of the city in one of the cheapest states in the country. The state and city are both contributing. 3rd party investments from franchises that want to have resteraunts, hotels, apartments, shops, etc in the area.
It's a done deal long ago. Just had to make it look good that they gave the city leaders a chance to keep them here. I don't blame them. They'll get all the income including hotels, office space, retail, restaurants, transportation, everything!.
@@BigMoEnrgy .. we as a city is going to be all right and I love the stadium was going to bring a lot of people and we're going to win some games in that bad boy
I attended a few Steelers games at the old Browns stadium in the early 90s and loved the atmosphere, lake chill and all. It's sad that the once great outdoor sport of NFL football is now becoming an indoor sport. More and more teams want roofs, and I think it's a shame that most games will appear plastic and artificial instead of blending in with the natural elements. I understand revenue and all that jazz, but I guess basketball arenas aren't big enough for concerts and other events these days? Gotta keep up with the (Jerry) Jones's and heaven forbid it gets cold or players get grass stains or dirt on their uniforms. The league is too pretty and political now, and it's a bore.
Can’t wait to see the ticket prices lol. Guess I’ll have to be more content watching from home. I’m definitely not trying to be a Debbie downer, it looks really cool, but at the same time, I’m sure the future prices will cut out the normal everyday fan, and clear the path for the upper class/big business.
I live in Atlanta and tickets for Falcons games at (the new) Mercedes Benz stadium are reasonable. In terms of NFL tickets… Also not sure if u could fit 70k big business upper class people into the stadium 8x a year. I hope I’m right!
I find it hard to believe any browns fan would want the staduim moved...moving it to brook will make it even harder for any poor clevelander to get to the stadium...maybe thats the point
@dreadbull5039 They talked for years, done feasibility studies, and have done nothing with all that lakefront property other cities would kill for. Use the airport once a year for Air Show and a few planes.
Wasting money on a stadium for a team that doesn't win when that money could go to countless other things. Sounds about the state of America right now !
Meanwhile in Chicago where I live the Bears and crooked politicians couldn’t get a deal done to build a phone booth!! Congratulations Cleveland you deserve it 👍👍👍👍
Here is a rough draft of my proposal for a rail system. The system would connect the airport to the Cleveland Browns stadium and their training facilities. Additionally, it would include connections to downtown Cleveland and surrounding suburbs. The airport would benefit by providing residents with an easy way to fly in and out without needing to leave their cars or arrange drop-offs. Moreover, any events hosted by the Cleveland Browns could use this rail system to offer residents convenient access. The endless possibilities. I do think as well this rail system should be free to all Cleveland residents. Now if you are flying in to watch the game then they should pay or have land bridge they can walk over as alternative route. Airport could have Airport hanger just set up just for Cleveland Browns and event venues to have a underground tunnel connected to the stadium, so equipment and gear along with event staff can have minimal impact on getting stuff set up.
Brook park is a bad area like it's not the Brook Park browns it's the Cleveland browns so we should probably be located in Cleveland I mean leave that open parking it'll be great for all those people to be stealing out of cars lol
They want it so you get off the plane and you are instantly in Haslams World and thats all you see. People won’t have to travel to downtown anymore. I get it, looks awesome.
It’s an interesting looking stadium. I think it’s going to be almost impossible to get funding for it unless the state kicks in 25%, the 8/9 county region (taxpayers) kick in 25% and the Haslam’s kick in 50%. Otherwise it’s got the same fate as the Titanic.
