The Riverhounds’ Highmark home sits on the riverbank and has been dubbed the “most beautiful ever”.
According to KDKA TV, Pittsburgh are ready for an expansion that will see their capacity growing from 5,500 to over 15,000.
That could raise the USL Championship team’s chances of one day moving up to the proposed USL Division One.
If plans for the new division go through then the Hounds would be playing in the highest level of the United States league system, alongside Major League Soccer.
The Riverhounds’ plans could also lead to some immense revenue for the club.
That is because they would be able to host between eight to 12 concerts per year.
The Riverhounds’ fans are ecstatic with the news and celebrated on social media.
One supporter tweeted: “This is incredible. Great field. Will be an awesome venue for concerts with that view.”
