The Massachusetts Senate has passed a significant amendment within a $2.9 billion economic development bill, paving the way for the New England Revolution to potentially build a new stadium in Everett, adjacent to the Encore Casino.
This legislative move comes as a major step forward for the soccer team's long-awaited stadium project, removing previous restrictions on a waterfront parcel earmarked for development. Local officials, including the Mayor of Everett, have lauded the Senate's decision, highlighting the potential economic and community benefits of the stadium.
However, the process is not yet complete, with a legislative deadline of July 31 looming, indicating that further developments and approvals are necessary before the project can proceed.
