Hayward Field Tower
Hayward Field at the University of Oregon has hosted numerous USA Olympic Track and Field Trials and NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships since its original construction in 1919 and has had more “World’s Greatest Athlete” titles given to decathlon world record breakers than at any other venue. The renovations from 2018-2020 included the addition of a 10-story tower at the northeast corner of the stadium. This landmark pays tribute to the university’s legacy with a custom perforated metal façade depicting five Oregon track and field icons: coach Bill Bowerman, and athletes, Steve Prefontaine, Raevyn Rogers, Ashton Eaton and Otis Davis.
