Milwaukee County Stadium, Baseball stadium in Menomonee Valley, Milwaukee, US
The multi-purpose stadium featured a double-deck grandstand along the foul lines, extending to lower seating that reached the foul poles and outfield bleachers.
Construction of Milwaukee County Stadium began in 1950 on a former garbage dump site and faced delays due to steel shortages during the Korean War.
The stadium served as home for both the Milwaukee Braves from 1953 to 1965 and Milwaukee Brewers from 1970 to 2000, hosting three World Series.
The facility accommodated 36,011 spectators and contained multiple seating sections, including grandstand areas, bleachers, and specialized viewing zones for different sporting events.
The venue became the first Major League ballpark in the United States constructed with lighting systems and funded entirely through public financing.
