According to "The Seasons of Buffalo Baseball," Olympic Park, the precursor to Offerman, was located at Michigan and East Ferry. The Bisons played there from 1889-1923.

Offerman Stadium was built on the same site in 1924. By all reports it was a great minor-league stadium but was falling apart by 1960, the final year it was used.

The Federal league team played at Federal Field, corner Lonsdale Road and Northland Avenue. The FL only lasted from 1914-15 and the stadium was demolished.
