The $1.86 billion, 80,000-seat, closed-roof structure, to be opened in 2018, would become the world’s most expensive stadium. Chris Meany, vice president of the Hollywood Park Land Company (HPLC), partners with the Kroenke Group, commented, “It’s just the next step, but it’s a very important step.”

A domed stadium stadium in sunny LA? There is a race between the Rams, Chargers, and Raiders to get to LA is they can't extort tax money from their current host cities. I doubt there will be 3 teams in LA. Perhaps the Raiders or Chargers will move into the Inglewood stadium. That would make more sense as there would be a AFC and NFC team in LA.

Inglewood, right? That’s one of the most F’d up hoods’ you don’t want to go to at night. No matter how many times they “improved” the Forum. Heck, I thought they were offering Industry which is a better city than that rathole.

The newest NFL stadium is Levi Stadium home of the 49ers that opened the past season. That cost $1.3 billion. This proposed stadium is 40% more expensive than that.
