Madison Landmarks Nominated by the Trust
Breese Stevens Field
917 E. Mifflin Street
Breese Stevens Field was once the city’s major athletic complex. The original grandstand structure, designed by the Madison architectural firm of Claude and Stark in the Mediterranean Revival style, was built from 1925 to 1926.
The surrounding walls, which today encircle the playing field, are constructed of sandstone, said to be quarried from the former city quarry at Hoyt Park. The walls and concrete bleachers were built in 1934, and the wood-press box was built in 1939.
This complex is a Madison Landmark and was nominated by the Madison Trust in 1995.
