House Park, Sports stadium in Austin, Texas.

House Park is a 6,000–6,500-seat stadium in Austin with two uncovered concrete grandstands and a field of artificial turf installed in 2008. A low grandstand bears the words "HOUSE PARK" on a tan central section, and red and white tiered seating runs along one side and behind an end zone. Yellow American football goalposts stand at each end.

House Park opened in fall 1939 on land donated by Edward M. House, a diplomat and adviser to Woodrow Wilson. It was built with part of a $613,127 Public Works Administration grant offered on October 31, 1938, and designed by Giesecke & Harris with J. R. Blackmore & Sons as builder. The stadium was later dedicated to Austin High students who died in World War I and World War II.

The stadium is named for Edward M. House, the diplomat and adviser to Woodrow Wilson who donated the land. It was later dedicated to Austin High students who died in World War I and World War II. Today it hosts high school football, soccer and lacrosse, and is home to Austin Sol, the city's professional ultimate frisbee team, whose first home game was on April 9, 2016.

The stadium offers accessible entrances on multiple sides, making it easy to find your way in from different directions. Arriving early gives you time to find good seating and avoid the rush just before games start.

The stadium's field was natural grass until 2008, when it was replaced with artificial turf; fans were allowed to take patches of the old grass home as souvenirs. The German Wikipedia also records that the Austin Aztex first chose House Park in August 2009 as their home ground, after a year at Nelson Field, because of its proximity to downtown.
