A six-alarm fire tore through the grandstand at Boston's Suffolk Downs Monday night, reports WCVB5. No injuries were reported on the scene.
“We had a very difficult time with water. It was very limited here. We had a lot of help to get lines running thousands of feet,” Boston Fire Department Commissioner Jack Dempsey told WCVB5.
Officials did not know what caused the fire.
Live racing was held at Suffolk Downs until 2019, but the grandstand had remained open for simulcasting, including on Memorial Day. Last week, a groundbreaking ceremony was held for the site's redevelopment into a mixed-use community.
