Hamilton County confirms it will look at dome for Paycor Stadium
Cincinnati Business Courier
The Cincinnati region's source for local business news & events. Part of the American City Business Journals network.
Hamilton County is conducting a study examining the cost – and logistics – of putting a dome on top of Paycor Stadium. It’s an idea first floated in 2023 under the premise that a facility with a roof could be used more year-round, county commissioners said. This is the first time the plan has been confirmed.
The county declined to provide other details, including who it is paying to study it, how much the examination will cost and whether it is a part of the other studies of Paycor Stadium, including one released Sept. 18?outlining $1.3 billion in renovations and the construction of new team facilities. The county and the Bengals, which of course call Paycor Stadium home, are exploring a lease extension. The current deal expires in 2026.

5 个月If it’s feasible, it could address the desire to bring a new arena to downtown. Couldn’t play a hockey game there most likely, but it would work for things like the NCAA Tournament and hypothetically a Super Bowl, which the city has sought previously. That said, Cleveland just explored adding a dome to its existing NFL stadium and it seemed like an unreasonable undertaking, both financially and architecturally. I guess we will see what happen. Trevor Ponder, AIA, NCARB, LEED AP, any insights?
