Hanlan's Point Stadium, Baseball stadium on Toronto Islands, Canada
Hanlan's Point Stadium was a sports venue on the Toronto Islands built with steel framework and covered seating areas. The facility included a cycling track and sat at the harbor's edge with direct ferry access.
The facility opened in 1897 as the home field for the Toronto Maple Leafs baseball team. It replaced their previous ballpark located near the Don River.
The venue hosted professional baseball games and traditional lacrosse matches, drawing sports fans who gathered on the island for different athletic competitions. People came to enjoy outdoor entertainment in a location separated from the city by water.
Visitors could reach the stadium by ferry from the mainland, which made attendance convenient for spectators traveling across Toronto Bay. The island location meant planning ahead for transportation and travel time.
The baseball legend Babe Ruth played here and hit his first professional home run that sailed into the harbor. This moment connected the stadium to an important chapter in baseball history.
