Amenities included a two-room press box, two picnic areas, two separate clubhouses for home and visiting teams, deck seating for sponsors, and electric fans to cool the rooters sitting in the wooden seating areas, which are not individual seats but rather a long wooden stairway extending behind the boxes.

[1] Bringhurst closed after eighty years of use in 2013 because of safety concerns about the metal superstructure that supported the wooden bleachers.

The Alexandria Aces still used the field in 2014 but failed to complete the season, and a fire in 2014 destroyed the former clubhouse and office.

The field will become a green space in June 2017 for picnicking and playing leisure games.

[2] The field was named in honor of Alexandria engineer Robert Wilton Bringhurst (1840-1912), who built bridges during the American Civil War.
