Lockhart Stadium, Municipal stadium in Fort Lauderdale, United States
The stadium occupied a 64-acre site at 1350 Northwest 55th Street, featuring a natural grass field and permanent seating for 20,450 spectators.
Built in 1959 and named after city commissioner H.Y. Doug Lockhart, the venue initially served as the primary field for four local high schools.
The stadium marked its place in American soccer history when the United States defeated Mexico 2-1 in a World Cup qualifier on November 23, 1980.
The facility provided access through Cypress Creek transit and maintained a public parking lot with direct entry to the main gates.
Before its 2019 demolition, the stadium hosted international rugby matches, including contests between the USA Eagles against Spain in 2003 and Chile in 2016.
