Aloha Stadium Authority in Hawaii (Authority), USA has voted to change the demolition schedule to late 2022, rather than previously agreed in 2023. Without the existing stadium, the construction of a new stadium is expected to be less costly. In addition, funds reserved for structural monitoring of the old stadium will be instead diverted to build a new venue. The development could include 3,300 homes, 650 hotel rooms, big retail and offices.
The Authority has already shortlisted three bidders for the project's development, one of which will be responsible to replace 50,000-seat Aloha Stadium with a new facility containing about 30,000 to 35,000 seats on 20 acres adjacent to the existing stadium. The winning team will also maintain the new stadium during 30-40 years for an arranged price.
