Victory Field, a baseball stadium that has been a central hub for Indianapolis for 30 years, has become a significant symbol of the city's storied sports identity. The ballpark was built as a solution to a problem when Major League Baseball ruled that the Indians' old home, Bush Stadium, no longer met facility standards. Negotiations with the Indianapolis Capital Improvement Board led to the construction of Victory Field on a neglected brownfield site on land available through White River State Park. The public-private partnership between the city and the team resulted in a public-public partnership, which was completed within two years despite significant environmental remediation. The stadium has also served as a hub for sports history, hosting tribute nights for both the Indianapolis ABCs and the Indianapolis Clowns.
