Robert Kraft's legacy may already be cemented, but he wants to guarantee it.
That's why the Patriots owner is pouring concrete, and a substantial amount of money, into Patriot Place.
"This is where I come to work every day. We want to build something special," Kraft said in an interview with Sunday's Boston Globe. This is the first time Kraft has spoken publically about his ideas for the enormous retail, office, and entertainment venue surrounding Gillette Stadium.
The interesting feature gives rare insight into the Kraft family's plans to develop the home of the Patriots into an even higher-profile, year-round destination.
One of the new attractions being built is **The Hall at Patriot Place**. As you may have already seen here on Patriots.com, the interactive museum will pay tribute not only to the history of the Patriots franchise, but also to football in general throughout the New England area.
