Toyota Field
EXPANSION MODEL SPARKS A NEW VISION
San Antonio, Texas | 2013
Home to the San Antonio Scorpions NASL soccer franchise, Toyota Field was designed to not only be the flagship stadium of its league, but to continue to be home to the San Antonio Scorpions through potential future MLS expansion. The project came with design challenges that included a tight budget, unique site topography, a very small site footprint, and a short construction timeline. The most important challenge, however, was to create a venue with a capacity of only 8,000 seats that would still provide an intimate soccer experience and ultimately energize the brand new fan base of the city’s first professional soccer team.
Perforated metal facades, exposed steel structure and a soaring metal roof canopy adorn an architectural design that reflects the industrial heritage of the historic Longhorn Quarry in which the stadium resides. With its horseshoe configured stadium seating only 17’ away from the touchlines, beer garden seating only 15’ away from the south goal line, and an observation terrace overlooking the southwest corner flag, the atmosphere at Toyota Field is one of the most intimate in professional soccer.
