White Stadium cleared a big legal hurdle, paving the way for the City of Boston to move forward with renovations, after a judge sided with the city.

A Superior Court judge issued a ruling Wednesday afternoon saying that the renovation of White Stadium is not in violation of state laws. The order from Judge Matthew Nestor counts as a major victory for the City of Boston and the new professional women’s soccer team that hopes to begin playing in the renovated stadium next March.

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu called the judge's ruling "a historic victory," while opponents are leaving open the possibility of appealing.

Tinaglia said he supports a new Bears stadium in Arlington Heights, but the franchise and the village need to come to an agreement on common goals.

Chicago Bears President Kevin Warren confirmed at the NFL owners meetings that the team no longer has a singular focus on building its new stadium downtown.

Per ESPN's Courtney Cronin, Bears team president and CEO Kevin Warren said at the NFL annual meeting on Wednesday that the franchise is expanding its options to include Arlington Heights, Illinois, where it owns the 326-acre property that was the previous home of the Arlington International Racecourse.

The Chicago Bears' efforts to build a new stadium took another turn at the NFL Owner's Meeting on Wednesday morning.

The focus now is both downtown and Arlington Heights,” Warren said at The Breakers, the site of the league’s annual meetings this week. Warren said that the “next three-to-six months” will be critically important for the Bears’ stadium project.
