Read the story
Waco's skyline is defined by more than just historic homes. McLane Stadium is often called the most beautiful stadium in America. Replacing Floyd Casey Stadium in 2014, it was the Baylor Football Program's first new stadium since 1950.
Its striking design and prime location on the banks of the Brazos River make it a top attraction in the city, even for those who aren't football fans. It's a bold, modern statement of sports architecture that transforms the riverfront into a high-energy hub. As you approach, take in the scale of the architecture and the energy it brings to the river's edge.
