==History== ===Packers seek a modern facility=== Since 1925, the Packers had played at 25,000-seat [[City Stadium (Green Bay)|City Stadium]], located behind [[Green Bay East High School]]. However, by the 1950s, it was considered inadequate for the times. It was built almost entirely of wood, and East High's locker room facilities were considered inadequate even in the 1920s; visiting teams often dressed before the game at the [[Hotel Northland]], where the Packers' opponents stayed at the time. The stadium could not be expanded. East High's location ruled out any expansion to the south, and it could not be expanded to the north or east due to its location along the [[East River (Wisconsin)|East River]]. Officials in [[Milwaukee]], {{convert|120|mi}} to the south, where the Packers had played a part of their schedule since [[1933 Green Bay Packers season|1933]], knew that City Stadium was less than ideal as an NFL venue. They built [[Milwaukee County Stadium]] in 1953 in hopes of luring the Packers there full-time. As originally built, County Stadium was double the size of City Stadium. Soon after County Stadium opened, the other NFL owners threatened to force the Packers to move to Milwaukee unless they built a new stadium. In August 1955, the Packers announced plans for a new stadium in Green Bay, with a seating capacity of 32,000.<ref name=ngspbpk>{{cite news |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=SAkkAAAAIBAJ&pg=7079%2C4861047 |newspaper=Milwaukee Journal |agency=United Press |title=New grid stadium planned by Packers |date=August 25, 1955 |page=18βpart 2 |archive-date=May 27, 2016 |access-date=November 30, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160527015515/https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=SAkkAAAAIBAJ&sjid=qCUEAAAAIBAJ&pg=7079%2C4861047 |url-status=dead }}</ref> In April 1956, Green Bay voters responded by approving (70.3%) a bond issue to finance the new stadium.<ref name=bvabyos>{{cite news |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=nAQqAAAAIBAJ&pg=5155%2C2261763 |newspaper=Milwaukee Journal |agency=United Press |title=Bay votes a big 'yes' on stadium |date=April 4, 1956 |page=17βpart 2 }}{{Dead link|date=April 2025 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref><ref name=gbdytns>{{cite news |url=http://archives.chicagotribune.com/1956/04/04/page/53/article/green-bay-says-yes-to-new-stadium |newspaper=Chicago Daily Tribune |title=Green Bay says yes to new stadium |date=April 4, 1956 |page=3, part 4 }}</ref> The original cost in 1957 was $960,000 (paid off in 1978), and its [[seating capacity]] was 32,500. The new stadium was the first modern stadium built specifically for an NFL franchise. At the time, the eleven other NFL teams were playing either in facilities shared with [[Major League Baseball|major league baseball]] teams or in other pre-existing shared facilities. The site, now bordered on three sides by the village of [[Ashwaubenon, Wisconsin|Ashwaubenon]], was selected because it had a natural slope, ideal for creating the bowl shape, along with expansive parking. The nearby outdoor practice fields ([[Clarke Hinkle Field]] and [[Ray Nitschke Field]]) and [[Don Hutson Center]] are in Ashwaubenon, as was the [[Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame|Packers Hall of Fame]] until 2003.

Although they now have a modern facility in Green Bay, the Packers continued to play two or three regular-season games in Milwaukee at County Stadium. Starting in [[1995 Green Bay Packers season|1995]], expansions to Lambeau Field (see below) made it financially realistic for the Packers to play their entire regular season in Green Bay for the first time in over 60 years. Former Milwaukee ticket holders receive tickets to a [[preseason]] game and games 2 and 5 of the regular season home schedule, in what is referred to as the "Gold package". Green Bay season ticket holders receive tickets to the remaining home games as part of their "Green package". ===Expansion, 1961β95=== Demand for tickets at the new stadium easily outstripped supply, not coincidentally after the arrival of coach [[Vince Lombardi]] in [[1959 Green Bay Packers season|1959]]. In [[1961 Green Bay Packers season|1961]], four years after it opened, the stadium's capacity was increased to 38,669.<ref name=ctbbagb>{{cite news |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=SQIqAAAAIBAJ&pg=3216%2C5191380 |newspaper=Milwaukee Journal |title=Capacity to be boosted at Green Bay stadium |date=March 9, 1961 |page=10βpart 2 }}{{Dead link|date=April 2025 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> Since then, the Packers have been regularly increasing the seating capacity.

In [[1995 Green Bay Packers season|1995]], a $4.7 million project put 90 more private boxes in the previously open north end zone, again giving the stadium the feel of a complete bowl and increasing capacity to 60,890. ===Renovation, 2001β03=== [[Image:Lambeau-field.jpg|thumb|The West side of Lambeau Field in [[2005 Green Bay Packers season|2005]]]] By the end of 1999, the Packers believed that they needed to update the facility to remain financially competitive in the NFL. Rather than build a new stadium, Chairman/CEO [[Bob Harlan]] and President/COO John Jones unveiled a $295 million plan to renovate Lambeau Field in January 2000. It was to be paid for partly by the team via the 1997β98 stock sale, which netted more than $20 million. Most of the proceeds were to be paid through a 0.5% sales tax in [[Brown County, Wisconsin|Brown County]] and [[personal seat license]] fees on [[season ticket]] holders. After their plan won approval by the [[Wisconsin State Legislature]], it was ratified by Brown County voters on September 12, 2000, by a 53%β47% margin. Construction began early in 2001. The sales tax expired on September 30, 2015.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://fox11online.com/news/local/green-bay/lambeau-field-sales-tax-ends-today|title=After 15 years, Brown County Lambeau Field sales tax expires tonight|last=Miston|first=William|date=September 30, 2015|publisher=[[WLUK-TV]], Green Bay|access-date=December 7, 2015|archive-date=October 25, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151025043222/http://fox11online.com/news/local/green-bay/lambeau-field-sales-tax-ends-today|url-status=live}}</ref> The massive redevelopment plan was designed to update the facilities, add more premium and suite seating, yet preserve the seating bowl, keeping the storied natural grass playing field of the "frozen tundra".

On May 5, 2011, the Packers sent out an online survey to 30,000 season-ticket holders, club-seat holders and individuals on the season-ticket waiting list to get feedback from the fans on several concepts being considered for the south end-zone development. On August 25, 2011, plans were officially announced to add 7,500 new seats to the south end zone. The new seats are outdoors with the exception of one indoor row. The seats include heated areas that melt snow as it falls (a concept tested on a small scale during winter 2010), intending to solve the logistical problem of shoveling snow from an "upper deck" seating area. The snow that falls into the original bowl area is shoveled by compensated volunteers from the community<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://fox6now.com/2016/12/22/fans-help-shovel-lambeau-field-before-packersvikings-game-saturday/|title=Fans help shovel Lambeau Field before Packers/Vikings game Saturday|date=February 22, 2016|website=FOX6Now.com|access-date=May 2, 2017|archive-date=December 27, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161227022912/http://fox6now.com/2016/12/22/fans-help-shovel-lambeau-field-before-packersvikings-game-saturday/|url-status=live}}</ref> using a system of temporary chutes placed in the aisles and carts to remove the snow from the stadium. [[Image:LambeaufieldGreenbay.jpg|thumb|right|The renovated Lambeau Field in December 2003]] The new sound system was completed in time for the 2011 season. On August 25, 2011, Packers president Mark Murphy announced that the expansion of Lambeau would not be paid for by taxpayers but by the team itself. After construction was completed on the south end zone seating in the summer of 2013, Lambeau became the third-largest stadium in the NFL, with a capacity of 80,750. Additional construction included two new tower gates for the north and south end zone. Lambeau Field also installed [[Mitsubishi]] Diamond Vision Video Boards, as well as a rooftop viewing terrace in the north end zone for club seat holders during games. The rooftop viewing terrace and video boards were completed in time for the 2012 season.<ref>[http://www.packers.com/news-and-events/article_spofford/article-1/Survey-seeks-input-on-south-end-zone/30e2147f-73c3-4904-a3ab-1e76c2cd8b1f Survey seeks input on south end zone] {{Webarchive| url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110508054727/http://www.packers.com/news-and-events/article_spofford/article-1/Survey-seeks-input-on-south-end-zone/30e2147f-73c3-4904-a3ab-1e76c2cd8b1f |date=May 8, 2011 }} Green Bay Packers</ref><ref>[https://www.nfl.com/news/packers-look-to-expand-lambeau-want-to-begin-work-in-2012-09000d5d81fb879e Packers look to expand Lambeau, want to begin work in 2012] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240419170559/https://www.nfl.com/news/packers-look-to-expand-lambeau-want-to-begin-work-in-2012-09000d5d81fb879e |date=April 19, 2024 }} National Football League</ref> On December 12, 2012, Lambeau Field was damaged by a minor fire when construction workers were cutting a metal beam near the fourth floor.

The Pro Shop has been moved to the new ground level, and a set of escalators were installed on the western side, leading to the atrium and the entrance of the Miller Gate. The Packers Hall of Fame moved to the second floor of the atrium where Curly's Pub was originally located. Curly's moved to the main floor where the Pro Shop was previously held and was renamed 1919 Kitchen & Tap. This renovation project was referred to as "Phase II", with the first phase considered as the 7,500 seats that were installed previously. The new setup was made to be easier for fans as it was difficult for fans in the past. Phase II also included the following: *The [[Oneida Nation of Wisconsin|Oneida Nation]] gate was given an expanded plaza extending into the east parking lot. A tunnel under the plaza leads to a player parking area immediately east of the player facilities. Permanent restrooms were installed under the plaza. *A new entrance called the [[American Family Insurance]] gate was added at parking lot level on the east side, with an escalator providing access to the main floor of the atrium. The Pro Shop is also accessible here. *Harlan Plaza in front of the Miller Gate facing Lombardi Avenue will remain, but its front now lines up with the North face of the atrium tower where the Pro Shop is situated. The Curly Lambeau and Vince Lombardi statues were repositioned and remain in the plaza. *New player facilities in the lower level of the stadium, including strength and conditioning rooms and a 35-by-50-yard practice walk-through area. At the time of the proposed renovation, the project was expected to create approximately 1,500 jobs and pay more than $60 million in wages.
