1821 - Union Course Race Track opened in Woodhaven

Woodhaven Boulevard dates back to at least the late nineteenth century, 
when it was called "Trotting Course Lane." 

The original route served the old Union Course, 
an important racecourse for trotting races, which was located just 
north of Atlantic Avenue in Woodhaven.
