PGE Park is an outdoor, multipurpose stadium which can be configured for baseball, soccer and American football. The playing surface is synthetic turf. The stadium consists of a covered grandstand from foul pole to foul pole, with the length of the football field aligned along the right field foul line. Stands have also stood in both the left and right fields from time to time. PGE Park seats 23,136 for concerts, 19,566 for baseball and soccer.
The Multnomah Athletic Club, an exclusive athletic club in downtown Portland, stands next door; the windows of the north side of the club's building overlook the field.
The stadium is now owned by the City of Portland, and is managed by Beavers PCL Baseball, LLC, the entity which owns the Portland Beavers. The stadium was renamed for Portland General Electric, which bought the naming rights.
The Interstate 405 freeway in Portland is known locally as the Stadium Freeway due to its proximity to the stadium.
