Dudley Field


Here's a great history page with details about Dudley Field. The photo above looks a lot different than the current view from West End Avenue. Wow. Go Dores!!

That pic even has bleachers in the endzone. That wasn't too long ago though when those were there. What, 4-5 years?

The more I look at that photo, the more I am amazed. None of the development around Memorial Gym had happened when that photo was taken. The street, 25th Avenue I think, is much farther from the gym's front door than it is now, and there are houses right beside the building. There's no parking garage, and I think even the West End Holiday Inn isn't there yet. Wow.

You're right that the bleachers haven't been gone very long. Probably around 2000 or 2001, I think.
