About: Hinchliffe Stadium (1932), a grand concrete oval planted majestically above the Great Falls in Paterson, NJ, was placed on the State and National Registers of Historic Places in 2004. It has a permanent niche in the nation's sports and social history as one of a handful of extant stadiums that were home to professional black sports during the so-called "Jim Crow" era. At a time when baseball was an indisputable game of greats, Hinchliffe featured some of the greatest ballplayers in America, players who ironically had no access to the major leagues.
