The site of the At the Rail Pavilion has officially become the new 1863 Club at the Saratoga Racecourse. MLB worked through the grueling winter months to get the foundations in place and literally had a race to the finish to get the project completed before opening day. All hands were on deck, 7 days a week, through weekends and holidays. Not only was this a huge project for Saratoga, but one of MLB’s toughest projects in its 72 year history. The 1863 Club is one of the largest single investments to be made at the track since the Clubhouse in 1928. MLB Construction was responsible to complete this proposed two year project in just 9 months, all while preserving the historic character of the Saratoga Racecourse. The 36,000 square foot, three-story luxury facility overlooks the track with a walkway over the paddock that connects to the existing Clubhouse. The first floor is a banquet space called The Rail that can accommodate 500. The second-floor club, named the Legends Hall, can hold up to 100. The third-floor offers six luxury suites designed for groups of 17 to 50.
