Jeld-Wen Field (formerly PGE Park; Civic Stadium; originally Multnomah Stadium; and from 1893 until the stadium was built- Multnomah Field) is an outdoor sports stadium located in the Goose Hollow neighborhood of Portland, Oregon, United States that is used primarily for soccer and American football. It opened in 1926 and underwent major renovations in 2001, with naming rights being bought by Portland General Electric (PGE), and again in 2011 when the naming rights were sold to Jeld-Wen in preparation for the 2011 Major League Soccer season. The stadium sits on a rectangular block bounded by Southwest Morrison Street, Southwest 18th Avenue, the Multnomah Athletic Club building and Southwest Salmon Street, and Southwest 20th Avenue.

Famous quotes containing the word field:
“My prime of youth is but a frost of cares,
My feast of joy is but a dish of pain,
My crop of corn is but a field of tares,
And all my good is but vain hope of gain:
The day is past, and yet I saw no sun,
And now I live, and now my life is done.”
—Chidiock Tichborne (1558–1586)
