The stadium was originally the home of Major League Baseball's San Francisco Giants, who played there from 1960 until moving into Pacific Bell Park (since renamed AT&T Park) in 2000 . It was also the home field of the San Francisco 49ers of the National Football League from 1971 through 2013 . The 49ers moved to Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara for the 2014 season . </P> <P> The stadium was situated at Candlestick Point on the western shore of the San Francisco Bay . (Candlestick Point was named for the "Candlestick birds" that populated the area for many years .) Due to Candlestick Park's location next to the bay, strong winds often swirled down into the stadium, creating unusual playing conditions . At the time of its construction in the late 1950s, the stadium site was one of the few pieces of land available in the city that was suitable for a sports stadium and had space for the 10,000 parking spaces promised to the Giants . </P>
