Area newspapers had held a contest and chose that name over "Nicollet Park" among others, awarding season tickets to the winning entrants.

Willie Mays was enjoyed by the Minneapolis fans for only a month or so in 1951 before the parent club New York Giants brought the young ballplayer to the big leagues.

In 1944 the Minneapolis Millerettes of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League called Nicollet Park home.

The New York Giants and Green Bay Packers played a preseason game on August 29, 1948, at Nicollet Park.

Currently, a condominium building with a Hennepin County Medical Center clinic is located on the north portion of the former baseball park's site, bordered by Lake Street.

On the night of May 29, 2020, during the George Floyd protests, the bank and nearby drive-up building were looted and set on fire.

As of 2021, the remains of these buildings have since been demolished and plans are underway to rebuild the bank, along with an apartment complex containing at least 200 units of affordable housing.
