Development delays to shops, housing development at RFK Stadium site

With delays expected for the housing and retail development surrounding the proposed new stadium at the old RFK Stadium site, 7News asked D.C. Council Chairman Phil Mendelson what changed between the initial and final votes of approval, as well as what is the new timeline for the project to be completed. In addition to a new NFL stadium, the redevelopment of the long-blighted site is set to add shops, hotels, and 6,000 housing units - about 30% of which will be designated as affordable housing. Patricia Stamper is an Advisory Neighborhood Commissioner (ANC) near the RFK Stadium site, and told 7News the mixed-use development is crucial for the community's needs. "Our biggest thing is we want a grocery store. I know they want to entertain, go football, go Commanders, go team, sports capital of D.C. However, we still gotta eat," said Patricia Stamper, an ANC near the stadium site. The new stadium is still expected to be ready for kickoff in 2030. However, Mendelson told 7News he expects the mixed-use development will be complete by 2040 to 2042.
