New model revealed of L.A. stadium for Chargers, Rams
Though neither team will see the new field until the 2020 NFL season, Chargers and Rams fans still have reason to get excited.
Earlier this month, virtual models were unveiled of the new complex to be built in Inglewood, Calif.

The $2.6 billion project will cover 298 acres and will be used for year-round events for sports and entertainment. Not to mention it will also host the opening and closing ceremonies for the 2028 Olympic Games.
Originally projected to open in 2019, the 70,000-seat stadium was the centerpiece for the massive transformation project of the former Hollywood Park Racetrack into the Los Angeles Stadium and Entertainment District at Hollywood Park. The area will include a 300-room hotel, 780,000 square feet of office space, a 6,000-seat performance venue attached to the stadium, approximately 25 acres of public parks, open space, pedestrian walkways and bicycle paths, 890,000 square feet of retail space and 2,500 modern residences.
