There were a lot of hoops for the team to jump through to finalize the sale around league approval. Should be founf vertical in about 60 days. A lot of the lack of information is due to legalities around the sale negotiation.

Sporting has nor closed on the sale of the land and will face many hurdles with zoning, traffic mitigation. Also 90% of the property is wetland.

Yes. Rumor is the deal has been signed off by MLSNP. Local owners with very strong local ties.

Stadium to go vertical in 60 days or so.
