Taylor Stadium was a stadium in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. It hosted the Lehigh University Engineers football team until they moved to Goodman Stadium in 1988. The stadium held 20,000 people at its peak popularity and was opened in 1914. The stadium was funded partially by the wife of Bethlehem Steel magnate, Charles M. Schwab. It was named after former Lehigh graduate, Charles L. Taylor.
