LA Rams New Stadium Delayed To Open In 2020 Because Of Rain

LA Times’ Sam Farmer is reporting the Los Angeles Rams’ future home stadium in Inglewood, which was originally planned to open in 2019, will now open in 2020 instead:

Developers, who broke ground on the project in November, blamed the postponement on record rainfall during the “mass excavation phase” of construction.

The weather brought work on the project to a standstill for two months earlier this year. The rain fell at a crucial stage of construction when work centered on digging the enormous hole — 5 million cubic yards of dirt were excavated — in which the stadium will sit.
