The best place for a new stadium is and always has been the site of the virtually abandoned RFK Stadium. This site has the best access to fans from more locations than any other site I can think of.

Let's start with the fact that there is a Metro Station right next to the stadium. This would provide access to fans from all parts of the D.C. Metro area. The city could also provide Circulator bus service on game days. People who live on Capitol Hill could walk to the game.

For people who would prefer to drive there are many ways to get to the stadium on good roads. Fans from Virginia can cross the 14th Street Bridge and take 395 which has an exit straight into the parking lot. The road actually terminates in the stadium parking lot!

Fans from Alexandria and Springfield can cross the Wilson bridge and take 295 straight to the stadium. Fans from Annapolis and Bowie can drive up Route 50 to the stadium. Fans in College Park can drive down Rhode Island Avenue. Chico can parachute into the stadium.

The new stadium would be built on the site of the old stadium and would include new multi-story parking garages.

It's a damn shame that the intractable positions of Dan Snyder and the D.C. Council over the team name are keeping this from happening.

BTW, F Richmond! The Redskins and Washington are synonymous, even if one businessman and few grandstanding politicians don't get it.
