"[12] Highmark Stadium is notable for its picturesque albeit unusual layout, with the Monongahela River in close proximity to the field.

Since the team's creation, there had been no official announcement concerning a permanent home for the Hounds, but much had been speculated since GM and manager Gene Klein, on 13 July 2007, said that the Riverhounds "are to the point on the stadium complex where it is a matter of paperwork and it will get done.

"[13] On 9 July 2008, Dan Onorato, Chief Executive of Allegheny County, announced a planned development of a 78-acre (320,000 m2) sports and recreation park that covers area near Pittsburgh in Coraopolis, Robinson, and Moon known as Montour Junction.

[14] The land was donated to the county's Redevelopment Authority by the Sports Legacy Foundation, which is chaired by Riverhounds founder and former owner Paul Heasley.

[14] The proposed uses for the park included soccer pitches as well as other multipurpose team sports fields such as rugby and lacrosse.

Despite speculation and previous attempts to build a permanent home for the Riverhounds at other locations, on December 8, 2011, it was revealed that a stadium for the club could be built at Station Square on the site of the current amphitheater close to downtown Pittsburgh as part of a redevelopment of the area.

[2] Construction of the stadium was scheduled to begin in late March to early April 2012 and to be completed during summer 2012.

[18] The first Riverhounds match at the stadium was played on 13 April 2013 to a sold-out crowd, several months after the anticipated opening date.

There are also plans to incorporate outdoor ice rinks during the winter months for public skate hours and amateur hockey games.

[19][24] The first concert at the stadium was The Steve Miller Band featuring Don Felder of The Eagles in July 2015.
