Roosevelt Raceway originally opened in the 1930's as an auto racing track for the Vanderbilt Cup races, it was only used for two years, closed and re-opened again in 1940 as a harness racing track. It stayed in operation until 1988, the only use for several years after was as a flea market. In February of 2000, it was finally torn down and replaced with Meadow Brook Commons
