my visit to foxborough ... practice facilities

the dana farber field house ... the blue building with the white roof in the center of the photo below ... houses the indoor training facilities of the new england patriots (nfl) and new england revolution (mls) ... when not in use by the patriots or revolution ... the field house hosts private meetings/functions, exhibitions, youth athletic events and conventions on a year-round basis ... the dana farber field house is located directly behind the south end of gillette stadium (the end opposite the bridge and lighthouse) ... the outdoor practice fields are located on the other side of the field house
taken from a parking lot at the corner of gillette stadium ... this is the front of the dana farber field house ... with a full sized football field inside ... the field house is a wide building ... the outdoor football fields are to the left of the field house
located just down the hill from parking lots that stretch most of the length of gillette stadium ... the inflated new england patriots helmet serves as the gateway for visitors to the practice facilities and concession stands ... the front (width) of the dana farber field house is off to the left of the helmet
bleachers ... filled to capacity on a thursday afternoon in mid-august ... stretch the entire length of the playing fields ... with the dana farber field house in the background taken from the practice field sideline bleachers, this pic captures the end zone bleachers and hillside seating with the south end of gillette stadium in the background more hillside seating a view of the two full length football fields
a look across the two football fields
