New Seattle Stadium Recommended
A task force exploring the fate of the Kingdome in Seattle recommended that the concrete-roofed stadium be torn down and replaced with an open-air, natural grass football stadium--the option favored by prospective Seahawk buyer Paul Allen.
The advisory vote by the Seahawks-Kingdome Renovation Task Force will be forwarded to the Metropolitan King County Council for approval. Such a stadium is expected to cost between $370 million and $402 million.
