Jimmy John's Field is located in downtown Utica, just over twenty miles north of Detroit. It is owned by General Sports Entertainment (GSE); however, Utica's Downtown Development Authority will own the land it sits on and lease it to them for $1 per year for 30 years. The property was the site of a capped brownfield landfill that served as an unlicensed dump for household waste, that sat vacant the last 80 years.
Construction began in June 2015 and the venue opened on May 30, 2016. The cost of the field was $15 million.
In the park's first season it served all three teams as their home field, averaging 3,200 fans per game with over 200,000 fans total. Since its second season, it has also served as the home field for the Westside Woolly Mammoths.
In addition, the park hosted an NCAA game in April 2017. The field now serves as the home of the NAIA Lawrence Technological University Blue Devils. -
