It is located at 405 Logan Avenue N. in Renton, near Renton High School and includes an all-weather artificial turf field surrounded by an all-weather track. The facility has covered seating for 5,500 and parking for 1,000 vehicles.^{[3] [4]} The stadium was constructed in 1948 and in 2011 a $7 million renovation project was undertaken.^{[5] [6]} The new design calls for a lighting system with adjustable lights that can illuminate the stands in the various colors of the schools that use the facility as their home field.^[7]
