East Rutherford, NJ [September 25, 2012] – Foundation work for the new grandstand at the Meadowlands Racetrack is underway.
Pile
installation is on-schedule to be finished this week, with concrete work to
follow. The 155,000 square-foot building
is expected to be completed by 2014.
The
new grandstand is the integral part of track operator Jeff Gural’s plan to
reinvigorate racing at the Meadowlands.
Live attendance and wagering at the track were up in 2012, its first
season under the private management of Gural’s New Meadowlands Racetrack
LLC.
Live
harness racing will resume at the Meadowlands the weekend of December 28-29.
