Browns Kick Off Massive Dig for Huntington Bank Field in Brook Park
The Cleveland Browns began mass excavation on March 2, 2026 at the Brook Park site for Huntington Bank Field, kicking off a $3.4 billion Northeast Ohio development that includes a 67,500-seat enclosed stadium and a mixed-use district. With over $2 billion in private investment, the project will create thousands of local jobs (with at least 75% of work hours reserved for locals) and is on track for a 2029 opening, with the official groundbreaking set for April 30.
