City Stadium (Green Bay)

City Stadium, known as East Stadium from 1962 to 2002, is an American football stadium in Green Bay, Wisconsin, United States. The stadium was built in 1925 for use by Green Bay East High School, which is just to the south of the stadium, and the Green Bay Packers of the National Football League (NFL). City Stadium was the third home field for the Packers, after Hagemeister Park and Bellevue Park, and remained as such until 1956. During this time it was expanded from about 5,000 seats to 25,000. In 1933, the Packers began splitting their home games between Green Bay and Milwaukee, a practice that lasted until 1994 when they returned to playing all their games in Green Bay.

By the early 1950s, City Stadium was too small and lacked the features expected in modern football stadiums of the time. A bond initiative passed in the city of Green Bay to fund a new stadium for the Packers. After the Packers moved to "New City Stadium" (later renamed to Lambeau Field) for the 1957 NFL season, "Old City Stadium" was downsized and continued to be used by East High School. In the early 2000s, the facility underwent multiple renovations, including enhancements to the playing field and stands, as well as the installation of features honoring the stadium's history as it related to the Packers; this included a historic marker and sign for the Packers Heritage Trail.
