Chamberlain Field was an American football stadium in Chattanooga, Tennessee. It hosted the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga football team until they moved to Finley Stadium in 1997. [1] It officially opened on June 3, 1908, and was named in honor of former University of Chattanooga trustee Hiram Sanborn Chamberlain. [2] When it closed, it was the second-oldest on-campus college football stadium after Harvard Stadium. [1] In 2011, Chamberlain Field was disassembled, with its materials being used to construct Chamberlain Pavilion. [3]
The field was on the university campus, with boundaries Oak Street (south); Baldwin Street / Campus Drive (east); Vine Street (north); and Douglas Street (west). The original main stands were on the south, bordering Oak Street. Google Maps indicates the area is now a Quadrangle, an open field surrounded by campus buildings.
The stadium held 10,501 people at its peak. Its Vine Street and Oak Street grandstands were demolished in 2004 and August 2011 respectively.[ citation needed ]
