About the Ridley Athletic Complex

The Ridley Athletic Complex is being constructed on a 71-acre parcel of land on the southwest corner of the intersection of I-83 and Cold Spring Lane, just a short distance from Loyola’s main campus.

The Complex will feature:

• 6,000-seat grandstand
• Sportexe Momentum synthetic turf field for NCAA lacrosse and soccer games
• Two practice fields and an NCAA regulation 400-meter track
• Spacious, modern locker rooms for home and visiting team
• Multimedia team meeting rooms
• Weight-training suite
• First aid suite
• Coaching staff offices
• Press box
• Food, beverage and merchandise booths
• Presidential and VIP Spectator boxes
• Coaches’ locker rooms and lounge and officials’ locker rooms

Twenty-one acres of the site were formerly owned by Sinai Medical Center while 50 were owned by the City. The Complex will provide an environmentally-sound recreational use of one of Baltimore’s few remaining unused parcels of land. Loyola will permanently maintain 29 acres of the 71-acre site as a conservation easement which will eventually include a recreational trail.
