The
new $45 million Princeton Stadium was designed by New York architect Rafael
Vinoly to provide Princeton with the most distinguished, intimate collegiate
stadium in the nation. The 27,800-seat stadium accommodates the fullest range
of sporting events including football, soccer and lacrosse. The traditional
horseshoe form and overall massing of the original Palmer Memorial Stadium was
recalled in the new stadium design to maintain the dignified stadium presence.
JBC was responsible for the design of the high-performance bluegrass stadium
field, which included turf stabilization and an asphalt warning track.
