Bowditch Field is being renovated. It is located on Union Avenue midway between Downtown and Framingham Center and was the main athletic facility for the town. It housed a large multi-purpose football stadium that included permanent bleachers on both sides of the field. There is still a baseball field, tennis courts, a track and field practice area, and the headquarters of the town Parks Department. Bowditch, along with Butterworth and Winch Parks, were all built during the Great Depression of the 1930s as WPA projects.[1][2]
