💨 Abstract
The storied Pimlico racetrack in Baltimore, home to the Preakness Stakes, closed permanently after its 150th running on Saturday. The track is being demolished to make way for a new facility set to open in 2027. Maryland’s Department of General Services has launched an auction to sell off items from the old track, including benches, railings, pictures, and seats where fans once watched races.
