DC’s $1.1 Billion Con

from City Cast DC · host City Cast

The Commanders kicked off their season over the weekend with a big win over the New York Giants. It’s setting the stage for an interesting council vote in the next month over funding a new stadium at the RFK site. The fight now isn’t over whether there should be a stadium, but in how much more DC can extract on things like affordable housing. It got us wondering: did DC get a good deal out of this? Michael Friedman from the University of Maryland is here to explain what the council might want to change in the next vote. Want some more DC news?
