Bay Meadows "an upscale shopping and residential site"

[dalakhani]

This is going to sound crazy from a horse racing fan but businesses, sports, buildings, etc do come and go.

Yankee stadium is gone. Boston Garden is gone. In the realm of historic venues hollywood park is but a pimple compard to those places. Those places were replaced by newer buildings and they draw crowds and make a profit. If they didnt, the old stadiums simply would have been closed and turned into shopping malls, condos, office buildings,etc and not replaced.

The parks that will survive will do so because they provide a product that people desire and because they are economically sustainable. Sure this is sad but there really isnt anything anyone can do. We Americans are capitalists.
