Patriots City Guide

The New Balance Athletics Center is the Patriots' 160,000 sq ft training home, built adjacent to Gillette Stadium on the Patriot Place campus in Foxborough. This guide radiates outward from that practice facility: the surrounding towns of Foxborough, Sharon, and Walpole offer estate-scale privacy within a short, predictable commute, while Boston and Providence sit roughly 30 minutes in either direction for nights out.
