Highlights include a detailed look at the stadium's swooping roof canopy, which was designed by HKS Architects. [...]
When completed in 2019, the $2.66-billion venue will offer seating for up to 70,240 NFL fans, as well as standing-room capacity for over 100,000 people at larger events. [...]
The stadium is one component of a much larger mixed-use complex that is being jointly developed by real estate firms Stockbridge Capital and Wilson Meany along with Rams owner Stan Kroenke.

Check out the video below for another look at "the NFL's biggest and most expensive venue, with a price tag well over $2 billion... the priciest sports venue in the nation's history" (Curbed LA) – aka, the new home for the recently-minted Los Angeles Rams (and potentially the San Diego Chargers as well). More renderings are perusable in the gallery below. Yay?
Are you ready for some more FOOTBALL?!?!?

Awesome design. Keep public money out of it (owner is worth many billions).
^That would set a dangerous precedent for the league. Much of the sweet deals they get from the cities to fund these things has come about with the treat of them moving to a city that will give them more money, proving they don't need it would be a disaster!
The inside looks a whole lot like Jerry World here in Dallas...
Has Zaha filed a copyright infringement suit yet?
^ Mr. Wig. Sorry I may be misunderstanding you so please clarify what you mean by dangerous precedent.
Suggesting that the public doesn't/ shouldn't fund a project which makes an individual millions while dodging paying taxes seems like a good thing (many of these stadium owners negotiate tax breaks just to come to the city). Why should the public pay for something only to hear the owners cry poor whislt driving away in their Bentleys?
This is the first time in a while that the paradigm has been reversed and one city has multiple teams wanting to come there. simple supply and demand suggests that they should be asking the team for concessions, not the other way around.
@ miles, I'm sure its in the works. Don't these people know that she invented stadiums. We should all show some respect for the great and powerful ZA.
The league specializes in extorting money from states and cities, it would be bad (for the NFL) to demonstrate that their owners have the funds to function on their own without public help.
apparently ya'll are not aware of the pecking order in this country - NSA, -NFL-, CIA, FBI, citizens............still trying to find an image of that Family Guy episode where Peter is committing all types of crimes and nothing happens to him, but the second he hits record on his VCR to record a NFL football game a bunch of govermnet agents invade his house and pull their guns on him.......its an interesting stadium/campus
Looks impressive.
HKS has a habit of doing these outlandish renderings, and doing nothing close to what they sold the city, team, NFL, or fans.

Option 2
This is what is getting built, and nearly finished:
One project makes a habit?
