Soldier Field has been around for nearly 100 years, and has served as the home of the Chicago Bears since 1971. Could that soon change?

Arlington Heights is a suburb that sits roughly 30 miles outside of Chicago. The Arlington race track is expected to be sold soon with expectations of tearing it down and redeveloping the site.
