The stadium's name was alternatively "Tournament of Roses Stadium" or "Tournament of Roses Bowl", until being settled as "Rose Bowl" before the 1923 Rose Bowl game, in reference to the unusually named (at the time) Yale Bowl. The field's alignment is nearly north–south, offset slightly northwest, and the elevation at street level is approximately 830 feet (255 m) above sea level. The southern stands were completed in 1928, enclosing the stadium into a complete bowl. Originally built as a horseshoe, the stadium was expanded several times. The nearby Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum also was under construction during this time and would be completed in May 1923, shortly after the Rose Bowl was completed. The Rose Bowl was under construction from Feb. The Arroyo Seco was selected as the location for the stadium. His design was influenced by the Yale Bowl in New Haven, Connecticut, which opened in 1914. The stadium was designed by architect Myron Hunt in 1921. The Pasadena Tournament of Roses Association, the game's organizer, realized the temporary stands were inadequate for a crowd of more than 40,000, and sought to build a better, permanent stadium. Through January 1922, the bowl now known as the Rose Bowl Game was played at Tournament Park, about 3 miles (4.8 km) southeast, adjacent to the campus of the California Institute of Technology (Caltech). Dunn announced that he will retire by the end of June 2022.Ĭonstruction in 1921 note the original horseshoe shape The Chief Executive Officer and General Manager is Darryl Dunn, who has been there since 1999.
