Kraft officials are expected to host an informal meeting this Thursday at Everett City Hall to discuss a four-acre waterfront park they\u2019ve proposed for the property.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>In an interview last week with the Globe, Bilello mused about what bringing the World Cup to Massachusetts \u2014 and the thousands of soccer fans who streamed in and out of town as a result \u2014 means for the Revs project. The goal is to build a 25,000-seat stadium, with as many as 35,000 for concerts, so the Revs no longer need to share Gillette Stadium with the New England Patriots, the Krafts\u2019 other sports team.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><span>\u201cMaybe this [the World Cup] gets people a little more excited about it,\u201d said Bilello, also a board member with the local FIFA organizing committee, Boston Soccer 2026. \u201cI think people are really starting to understand the real joy that a soccer fan brings to an event.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>However, he noted that the Revs were already seeing \u201ca lot of positive momentum on the stadium.\u201d (He did not address parking and traffic concerns raised by neighbors in Charlestown.) <\/span><\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/bostonrelocationinsider.com\/?p=5360\">Ex-Olympian charged with damaging Reflecting Pool gets Sept. 28 trial date<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span>Boston-area soccer fans will have to wait a few years before they can take the Orange Line to a Revs game. Not only does the Kraft Group need the stadium to go through a Massachusetts Environmental Policy Act review, a process that started this spring, the old Mystic power plant needs to come down before starting construction on the new stadium. City permits are also required.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cIt\u2019s about a three-year total process, from taking down the power plant, and then building the actual stadium,\u201d Bilello said. \u201cFrom the day we get the OK, it\u2019s about three years. &#8230; Now, we\u2019re just doing all the boring stuff we need to do. That\u2019s all progressing really well.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>That puts the most likely opening date for the Revs stadium at sometime in 2030 \u2014 maybe just in time for the 2031 Women\u2019s World Cup.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><i>Globe reporters Michael Silverman and Chris Serres contributed to this report.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><i>This is an installment of our weekly Bold Types column about the movers and shakers on Boston\u2019s business scene.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/bostonrelocationinsider.com\/?p=5358\">The men behind Trump\u2019s $3.47 gas: An NFL coach, a GOP fundraiser, and two New Jersey brothers<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kraft Group officials are expected to host a meeting this Thursday at Everett City Hall to discuss a waterfront park they\u2019ve proposed for the site.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5363,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5364","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sport"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
