Singapore to build homes over Turf Club

Over 180 years of horse racing came to an end in Singapore on Saturday, as the Singapore Turf Club hosted its final race day before its track is handed back to the government to provide land for new homes. The site of over 300 acres is to be bulldozed for new public and private homes as the nation tries to house a growing population that crossed six million this year. After some preparation, the site must be returned by early 2027. Bloomberg
