Episode Details

Sports Haven, New Havens iconic drum-shaped racing theater, is set for demolition. Opened in 1979, it hosted horse, dog, and jai alai races for decades but closed in 2021. The owners, Criterion Development, filed for demolition in February. Despite its historical significance, the structure is deemed too old and single-purpose for repurposing. The demolition is expected this summer, making way for future growth. Meanwhile, the Long Wharf area is undergoing a $12 million transformation, including parks and better harbor access.
