Wade Stadium

Wade Stadium

Wade Stadium is a baseball field located at Grand Ave & 34th AW in Duluth, Minnesota. The stadium was built in 1941 and holds 4,200 people. It is the home of the Duluth Huskies. "The Wade" as it is sometimes called by fans was the home of the Duluth-Superior Dukes of the Northern League from 1993 until 2002. One of a dying breed of WPA constructed stadiums, "The Wade" is noted for small dimensions, high fences, and cool, damp weather (due to the parks location near Lake Superior).

During the Depression the government funded projects to keep men working. The bricks from Wade Stadium came from one of these projects. They were removed from Grand Avenue in West Duluth and used to build Wade Stadium.
