The squash court was in the West Stands at Stagg Field, Chicago; the

eighteen years, though...


Following up - Stagg Field kept being described as "abandoned" in the
cites, so it may well not have been used at all post-Fermi.


It wasn't used pre-Fermi. U of C had forsworn athletics, hence the
stadium was unused, and available for building the pile.
