Chicago Bears assess land at Wolf Lake Terminals for possible new stadium site
The Chicago Bears this weekend said they are assessing land at Wolf Lake Terminals in Hammond, Indiana, for a possible new stadium.
The Northwest Indiana Times reported that soil drilling equipment was spotted near the site, located west of the Indiana Toll Road (Interstate 90) in Hammond.
Logistics and storage facilities are currently located on the site, the paper reported.
“This activity is part of the normal site evaluation process as we continue to advance our stadium development project in Hammond,” the Bears said in a statement issued to CBS News Chicago. “We have an excellent option already in place and continue to assess additional parcels of land in the Wolf Lake region to ensure we place the stadium and mixed-use district in the very best location to serve all of Chicagoland.”
Hammond Mayor Thomas McDermott Jr. is staying tight-lipped on the search, but said he is confident the Bears are heading to Indiana.
Earlier this month, the team announced the plan to build a new stadium complex in Hammond.
A bill passed by Indiana lawmakers calls for $1 billion in taxpayer money to be put toward infrastructure around the stadium, which officials said would support plans for retail, restaurants and residential units to be built around the stadium complex.
The Bears say they are also continuing negotiations with Illinois lawmakers.

Chance for storms continue into the weekend across Central Indiana
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Isolated to scattered-like thunder storms this evening, risk for severe storms Saturday afternoon and evening.
It’s been a hot and humid end to the week and isolated thunderstorms are impacting Friday evening plans. While most storms will remain sub-severe, one or two could reach severe criteria for strong wind gusts. The chance for storms will start to diminish after sunset.
There is a level 2 out of 5 threat for severe weather Saturday afternoon and evening.
Damaging winds is the greatest concern, however, hail and isolated tornadoes can’t be ruled out. An heavy downpours could lead to localized flooding concerns.
Storms will begin in northern Indiana after 3 pm along a cold front and slide south to central Indiana after 7 pm.
With the passing of the cold front, more seasonal and less humid air will filter in for Sunday. However, the northerly wind flow will allow for wildfire smoke to return and create hazy skies.
A big change in the upper level pattern will likely bring unseasonably mild air across the Midwest starting the second half of the next week!
Tonight will remain warm with early morning lows in the 70s with isolated to scattered-like storms. The first half of your Saturday will be mainly dry and hot before storms return for the late afternoon and evening. Sunday will be a little hazy with more seasonable temperatures. Heat and humidity spike the start of next week before it cools off starting Wednesday.
