Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan joined Prince George’s County leaders in Largo on Wednesday to celebrate $2.5 billion in state funding for the county.

The funding includes $400 million in bonds that will go toward development along Metro’s Blue Line, where leaders envision “a sports and entertainment destination.”
