High School Football Field Wall – Granite

Address:	500 West Mountain Road, Granite, Oklahoma	County:	Greer
Started:		Completed:	1938
Agencies:	WPA	NRHP:	No

Current Usage:

Baseball Stadium

Description:

5 Foot high granite block wall set in sections of 12 feet between granite pillars. The north wall has been replaced with concrete block.[1] Although this was orginially a football field, football was discontinued in the 1960s? due to the dangers. It then became a baseball diamond.

Personal note: I grew up in Granite Oklahoma during the first part of the 1970s and played many a baseball game here in the off season. Also climb those walls many a time. This was my first encounter with WPA structures.
