<P> The area now known as Croke Park was owned in the 1880s by Maurice Butterly and known as the City and Suburban Racecourse, or Jones' Road sports ground . From 1890 it was also used by the Bohemian Football Club . In 1901 Jones' Road hosted the IFA Cup football final when Cliftonville defeated Freebooters . </P> <P> Recognising the potential of the Jones' Road sports ground a journalist and GAA member, Frank Dineen, borrowed much of the £ 3,250 asking price and bought the ground in 1908 . In 1913 the GAA came into exclusive ownership of the plot when they purchased it from Dineen for £ 3,500 . The ground was then renamed Croke Park in honour of Archbishop Thomas Croke, one of the GAA's first patrons . </P> <P> In 1913, Croke Park had only two stands on what is now known as the Hogan stand side and grassy banks all round . In 1917, a grassy hill was constructed on the railway end of Croke Park to afford patrons a better view of the pitch . This terrace was known originally as Hill 60, later renamed Hill 16 in memory of the 1916 Easter Rising . It is erroneously believed to have been built from the ruins of the GPO, when it was constructed the previous year in 1915 . </P> <P> In the 1920s, the GAA set out to create a high capacity stadium at Croke Park . Following the Hogan Stand, the Cusack Stand, named after Michael Cusack from Clare (who founded the GAA and served as its first secretary), was built in 1927 . 1936 saw the first double - deck Cusack Stand open with 5,000 seats, and concrete terracing being constructed on Hill 16 . In 1952 the Nally Stand was built in memorial of Pat Nally, another of the GAA founders . Seven years later, to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the GAA, the first cantilevered "New Hogan Stand" was opened . </P>
