Before 1900

46Venues that were in use before 1900, including nineteenth-century baseball grounds and early racecourses.

1900–1949

218The era of steel-and-concrete ballparks, early arenas, board-track motor racing and grand racetrack grandstands.

1950–1979

259Postwar suburban stadiums, the first domes and the circular multipurpose stadiums shared by baseball and football.

1980–1999

202Venues active in the last decades of the twentieth century, when many older parks and arenas were replaced.

2000–present

131Venues that were still in use after 2000 before closing, including several domes and multipurpose stadiums replaced within the last two decades.
