The Richmond City Grandstand and Baseball Field were constructed in 1936 and are located within the Richmond City Recreation Park. There were three main factors in the construction of the grandstand and baseball field.

1. Funds during the Great Depression. United States President Franklin D. Roosevelt created the Federal Emergency Relief Act to ensure labor for those who lost their jobs. Builders of the stand were Andrew F. Feltman, Joseph H. Lewis, Elwin P. Traveller, Ezra D. Johnson, and Carl B. Johnson.

2. Popularity of baseball. At the time of its creation, there were no baseball fields in Richmond or the local park. To ensure individuals wanted to play on a field that was big enough to play, Richmond City built the field and grandstand.

3. Black & White Days. Black & White Days, at the time, did not have a permanent home to show cattle or host their shows.

In 2005, the Grandstand and Baseball Field were listed in the National Registry of Historic Places for its "events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of our history," and the "property embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction or represents the work of a master, or possesses high artistic values, or represents a significant and distinguishable entity whose components lack individual distinction." Areas of significance are entertainment/recreation, architecture and social history.
