Robertson Memorial Field House

Robertson Memorial Field House was a multi-purpose arena on the Bradley University campus in Peoria, Illinois.

The arena, built inside two surplus World War II airplane hangars in 1949 for $400,000 ($5.1 million in present terms), had a 3-foot (1 meter) raised floor as its sports court and event stage.

[1] From 1949 to 1982, it was home to the Bradley University men's basketball team, whose winning record there was 400–100 before they moved to Carver Arena in 1982.

[citation needed] The 2007–2008 season was the final year of use for Robertson Memorial Field House; it hosted NCAA women's basketball and volleyball.

[5] Bradley's new women's basketball arena, the Renaissance Coliseum, opened in October 2011 on the same plot previously occupied by the Field House.
