Monumental Sports announces plan to move Capitals, Wizards to Virginia
The Capitals and Wizards will be moving across the river to Alexandria
By Austin Nivison • 1 min readThe days of the Capitals and Wizards playing in Washington, D.C., are numbered. On Wednesday morning, Monumental Sports and Entertainment owner Ted Leonsis and Virginia governor Glenn Youngkin announced plans to move the teams across the river, according to the Washington Post.
Monumental Sports and Entertainment, in conjunction with Virginia, have revealed a plan to move the NHL and NBA teams to the Potomac Yard area in Alexandria, Va. The project will involve building a new $2 billion sports district that includes a new arena to be shared by the two teams, a 3,000-seat music venue, hotels and headquarters for Monumental Sports and Entertainment.
At an event in Potomac Yard, Leonsis said the project is about building up entertainment products that the entire DMV area can enjoy. Leonsis also asserted that moving the teams across the river doesn't make them any less a part of D.C.
"That notion of community in the DMV really is what our business is about," Leonsis said, per the Post. "That's the higher calling for sports. That is the higher calling on everything that we do - to build these legacies through winning championships from doing the right things in the right way by our fans, so that people can appreciate the community that they live in. It's no secret that this great airport here was considered Washington National, and yet it's in Virginia."
