Statement from FC Cincinnati President & General Manager Jeff Berding

“We thank the City Council for their unanimous approval today of our West End Stadium Concept PD for our privately funded $250+ million stadium.


“We are proud of our support for Music Hall, the Cincinnati Ballet and Just Cookin’. We will continue to work with the City Administration, which has done terrific work to date, as we get underway with construction.


We’re eager to get back to work on the site, as are local contractors, subcontractors and workers. We expect to meet Major League Soccer’s deadlines and open the stadium on time for the 2021 season.”
