Share a little Philadelphia history with a new generation through this Liberty Bell Park Horse Racetrack infant bodysuit. The Northeast Philadelphia track opened in 1963, welcomed a remarkable first meet, and became known for harness racing before adding Thoroughbred racing in 1969. Its racing years concluded with a 1985 closure announcement, and the site later took on a new purpose. A sweet local-history keepsake for families who value the city’s sporting past and its memorable landmarks.
Liberty Bell Park was a race track in Northeast Philadelphia, built after the Pennsylvania harness racing commission granted its first parimutuel track license to Liberty Bell Racing Association in 1961. The association was led by Philadelphia political figure and Eagles owner James P. Clark, who died in 1962 before the track opened. His niece’s husband, Michael J. O’Neill, oversaw construction and became the first president. Built over ten months at a cost of $12.5 million, the facility opened on June 7, 1963, with a 30,000-seat grandstand and separate ovals for harness and Thoroughbred racing. Its first meet drew 510,646 patrons over 50 days. Pennsylvania legalized parimutuel Thoroughbred wagering in 1968, and Liberty Bell began that racing on May 31, 1969, after an $800,000 conversion. Thoroughbred racing ended in 1974 when Keystone Park opened, while harness racing continued through 1985. Competition from Atlantic City casinos and the rebuilt Garden State Park Racetrack was cited in the track’s decline. Liberty Bell announced in October 1985 that it would not race in 1986. The 288-acre property was sold in May 1986 to Western Development Corp.; Franklin Mills shopping mall, later called Philadelphia Mills and now Franklin Mall, was built on the site.
