The Woodbrook district, west of Downtown, Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago, was formerly a sugar estate owned by the Siegert family of Angostura bitters fame.

The estate was sold to the Town Board in 1911 and developed into a residential neighbourhood, with many of the north–south streets named for the Siegert siblings, some of whom were Carlos, Luis, Petra and Alfredo.

At Woodbrook's western end, at the edge of Invaders Bay, is the Hasely Crawford Stadium, the national venue for football and track and field events.

In the weeks preceding Carnival each year, the look of the square changes as stadium style benches are built up by one of the City Corporations.

On Carnival Monday and Tuesday, this square is one of the judging points for mas Bands which elect to cross the stage at this location.
