Description

The team played at Hotchkiss Field (near the home of Julius Hotchkiss) and Douglas Park. In 1870 they moved to a park at the corner of Washington and Berlin Streets. In 1871 they moved to a park bounded by River, Eastern, Silver, and State Terrace Sts., where the 1872 pro team played. This site is currently the Maplewood Terrace Housing Development, and formerly the state insane asylum.

The 1860s home of Julius Hotchkiss was at 27-29 Woodside Circle.
