Hughes Fieldhouse
Located just northwest of College Park and Bearcat Stadium on the Northwest campus, the Carl & Cheryl Hughes Fieldhouse serves as a host site for a wide range of University and community activities. The project represents the single largest public-private partnership in Northwest's 112-year history--and one of the largest public-private partnerships ever in the region. The Hughes Fieldhouse features:
- 137,250 square-foot recreation and multipurpose facility including recreation and exhibition space,
- indoor flooring system,
- 100-yard practice turf,
- 300-meter indoor competition track,
- spectator seating, and
- tiered meeting rooms.
The Hughes Fieldhouse is an estimated $20 million project with multiple financing sources, including commitments from the University, private support and community support. The facility is named for the Carl and Cheryl Hughes family, who committed a significant gift to the project through the Hughes Family Foundation.
