Allianz Field, home of Minnesota United FC, rose on the site of a former Metro Transit bus depot in St. Paul's Midway neighborhood. Designed by the architecture firm Populous, the stadium seats 19,400 and opened in April 2019 after roughly two years of construction. Tower cranes here were used to raise the steel framework supporting the stadium's roof canopy, engineered to shelter most seating bowls from Minnesota winters. The roughly $250 million project was financed through a combination of private ownership investment, led by Minnesota United's Bill McGuire, and public infrastructure funding from the city of St. Paul.
