This stadium building is located on W. Wynnewood Avenue, directly across from the Armory. The building is rectangular and constructed of evenly laid white stone blocks. It is styled in Art Deco with a definitely horizontal design. The building is symmetrical with a flat roof. The center section is projected and served as the ticket both. To either side are single entrance doors and single windows. All windows have been boarded up and the building is not in use today. At the center of the roof line is a small area raised which served as the announcer's booth.
