Lane Field was a ballpark in San Diego, California. It was home of the San Diego Padres of the Pacific Coast League (PCL) from 1936 to 1957. The ballpark was located in downtown San Diego, at the end of West Broadway near the waterfront. Broadway bounded the park to the south (first base). Its other two close bounding streets were Harbor Drive (third base) and Pacific Highway (right field). There were various buildings to the north (left field) between the ballpark and Ash Street.
