Bush Stadium, Baseball stadium in Indianapolis, United States.
Bush Stadium is a baseball stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana, designed by Pierre and Wright in an Art Deco style and built from brick in nineteen thirty-one. The white exterior walls and classical columns at the facade frame fifteen thousand seats inside.
The site originally opened as Perry Stadium and was renamed Victory Field during World War II. In nineteen sixty-seven it took its current name to honor baseball player Donnie Bush.
During the thirties, several Negro League teams played here, including the ABC's and Crawfords, until the Indianapolis Indians integrated their roster in nineteen fifty-two. The stadium later served as a location for the nineteen eighty-seven film Eight Men Out and temporarily housed vehicles from the Cash for Clunkers program.
The building has been converted into a residential complex called Stadium Lofts, offering two hundred eighty-two housing units with fitness facilities and access to the White River cultural trail. Visitors can view the exterior facade and surrounding green spaces, as the interior is private.
The upper level of the grandstand offers a direct view of the Indianapolis skyline, while the original brick walls remain visible today as part of the housing complex. The conversion to residential use occurred after the site temporarily served as storage space.
