Roosevelt Stadium is a former American outdoor sports facility located in Union City, New Jersey. The stadium was built in 1936 and demolished in 2005 so Union City High School could be built on the site. After the school was built, its athletic complex was also named Roosevelt Stadium; the current field is located atop the school. It is not to be confused with the former baseball park of the same name in neighboring Jersey City, New Jersey.
Roosevelt Stadium served as the outdoor boxing venue for Hudson County during the 1940s, with Frank Paula being the promoter of nearly all these programs.
