Banning-Lewis Ranches was a successful cattle-ranching operation located east of Colorado Springs, managed by Raymond W. Lewis and Ruth Banning Lewis. The Lewises eventually acquired more than 30,000 acres on which Colorado Domino Type Herefords were raised. They won the Colorado Soil Conservation program award in 1948.The city limits of Colorado Springs were extended to encompass Banning Lewis Ranch in 1988. Efforts to develop the ranch into a residential community that could house up to 175,000 residents, and/or perform oil and gas exploration, have had limited success. 300 homes have been built on the northwest corner of the property, but the owners filed for bankruptcy in 2010. This lack of development has been used as an argument against spending at least $2.1 billion to build the "Southern Delivery System" water pipeline. As of 2015 the housing market in Colorado Springs exploded and now many new houses, mostly in the $300-$500,000 price range have been built with more under construction each day. In 2017, the housing market shows no signs of slowing down. Banning Lewis Ranch now has two schools, Banning Lewis Ranch Academy and Banning Lewis Prepratory Academy, with Banning Lewis Preparatory Academy opened in 2017, an activity center, two pools and a water park, walking trails and parks. It is one of the fastest-growing communities in Colorado Springs.

The stadium is immediately adjacent to UCHealth Park. After Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC were awarded a franchise in USL Pro, now known as the USL Championship, it was announced on June 14, 2014, that the Colorado Springs City Council had approved an agreement that gave the new franchise a ten-year lease on the site. On March 7, 2016, Sand Creek Stadium had a name proposal approved by the City of Colorado Springs Parks Department, and the name was changed to Switchbacks Stadium. This happened to avoid further confusion with the name of the nearby Sand Creek High School. On February 14, 2017, Weidner Apartment Homes purchased the stadium naming rights for an undisclosed amount, and the stadium was renamed Weidner Field.The "Weidner Field" name is now used for an 8,000-seat stadium in downtown Colorado Springs that opened in April 2021 as the new home of Switchbacks FC. The new venue, although sitting at a lower altitude of 6,035 feet, will remain the highest in elevation used by an American professional soccer team. The "Weidner Field" name was officially transferred from the old stadium to the new downtown venue on October 15, 2020.
