The Browns owners are currently negotiating two different potential stadium plans, including building a new facility in Brook Park
begin preparations for the 2024 season at the Greenbrier Resort in White Sulphur Springs, W. Va., a massive decision over the future of the Browns stadium looms large of the franchise and it's passionate fanbase.
As things stand right now, the Haslams are down to two options for the future home of the Cleveland Browns. They can renovate the current facility along the lakefront in a project that would essentially serve as a more than $1 billion band-aid to keep the stadium up-to-date in the short-term. That project, by the way, would not include adding a dome or roof over the venue.
"That's a complicated question," Haslam said. "In that the vast majority of these stadiums if you read the news the last six months are public-private partnerships. We don't own the stadium. And I'll be honest, the way the financial work out in an area like Northeast Ohio I think it needs to be a partnership. I still think the incremental revenue – that's what everybody needs to understand – will pay for the financing.
While the ownership group continue to reiterate that they'd still mulling over both options at this point, it was one comment from Dee Haslam that could provide a glimpse into where their heads are really at."We just came off the MLS All-Star week down in Columbus at the Lower.com Stadium and we can see what a new facility can do for the vibrancy of the city," she said. "It was an incredible three or four days in Columbus.
