An iconic dog racing track in Massachusetts, which has not hosted live racing in over a decade, is readying for a return to a booming business.
The site of the former Raynham-Taunton Greyhound Park will be transformed into a 60,000-square-foot retail sports betting location — one of just five that will open in Massachusetts next year.
Chris Carney, part of the track’s ownership group, said $25 million will be spent on the sports betting facility that will be connected to brand names such as Bally’s or Caesar’s.
“We’re spending over $2.5 million on (televisions). It’s going to be the biggest sportsbook in the country,” Carney said.
