From the Washington Post:

Now that Daniel Snyder finally got his “don’t let the door hit you” moment and the Commanders are under new ownership, it seems everyone is asking the same thing: Where’s the new stadium going? But that’s the wrong question.

Instead, we need to ask what’s the most important sports venue deal in the District. The answer is clear: Capital One Arena.

The urgency was laid out in The Post’s reporting last month. Capital One Arena is showing its age, and as early as 2027, Monumental Sports and Entertainment, the owner of both the Wizards and Capitals, could explore relocating the teams to a new venue, perhaps outside D.C.
