The stadium was erected on a former brownfield site within White River State Park, transforming contaminated industrial land into a key recreational asset at 501 West Maryland Street, just west of the Hoosier Dome. This location was selected to anchor urban revitalization initiatives, drawing the from their longtime home at on West 16th Street, which closed after the 1996 season. The was designed by the local firm Browning Day Mullins Dierdorf (BDMD) in collaboration with the global design firm HOK Sport (now Populous), emphasizing an intimate, fan-friendly layout integrated with the park's natural surroundings. Funded through a public-private partnership between the City of Indianapolis and the , the total construction cost reached $20 million. The design and building process prioritized and , with completion achieved in under two years despite the site's environmental challenges. The stadium's development aligned with concurrent downtown projects, including the opening of in September 1995, which together spurred economic growth, increased foot traffic, and enhanced the area's appeal as a destination for sports and entertainment. Victory Field officially opened on July 11, 1996, hosting its inaugural game between the Indianapolis Indians and the Oklahoma City 89ers before a crowd of 14,667 spectators. The Indians fell 5–3 in that contest, marking the beginning of their new era in the International League. The opening events, including ceremonies attended by local dignitaries, highlighted the stadium's role in fostering community pride and contributing to the ongoing renewal of Indianapolis's urban core.

Naming and early significance

The name "Victory Field" was adopted in April 1996 to honor the United States' victory in World War II, reviving the moniker previously used by the city's longtime baseball stadium—originally Perry Stadium—from 1942 to 1967 as a patriotic gesture during and after the war. The name was changed back to Bush Stadium in 1967 to honor former Indianapolis Indians president Owen J. "Donie" Bush. This decision linked the new ballpark to Indianapolis's baseball heritage while symbolizing renewal and triumph in the post-war era. The stadium's construction, completed earlier that year on a former brownfield site adjacent to White River State Park, set the stage for this symbolic naming as part of broader efforts to revitalize the urban core. The opening drew 14,667 fans, a sellout crowd that reflected strong initial enthusiasm despite some nostalgia for the old venue, and the event was widely praised for its intimate design and prime downtown location. Publications like Baseball America soon hailed it as the "best in America," crediting its fan-friendly layout and scenic views of the White River. As a $20 million public-private partnership, Victory Field served as a catalyst for downtown 's redevelopment in the mid-1990s, anchoring the expansion of White River State Park and spurring economic activity through increased foot traffic, packed sidewalks, and nearby commercial growth. The ballpark's arrival helped transform a blighted area into a vibrant hub, enhancing the city's reputation as a sports destination and fostering community pride in its legacy. The ceremony featured ceremonial first pitches thrown by Governor , Mayor , and Capital Improvement Board President Patrick Early, with former pitcher performing the National Anthem on harmonica. Key figures in the project's inception included Max Schumacher, who first proposed a new downtown ballpark in the late 1980s, and his son Bruce Schumacher, the Indians' CEO at the time, who oversaw the transition from the aging .
