What Is Aqueduct Racetrack?

Aqueduct Racetrack, nicknamed "The Big A," was a thoroughbred horse racing venue on Rockaway Boulevard in South Ozone Park, Queens. Its final races were held on June 28, 2026, and the track stayed open for simulcast betting until September 7, 2026. Resorts World New York City, a casino hotel that opened in 2011, sits on the same 172-acre lot.

Aqueduct Racetrack opened in 1894 and hosted thoroughbred racing until those final races. The former grandstand and clubhouse share a 172-acre lot with Resorts World NYC. The A train has stations named Aqueduct Racetrack and Aqueduct-North Conduit Avenue.

How to Get There From Terp Bros Ozone Park

Terp Bros NYC Ozone Park is about 0.7 miles in a straight line from the former Aqueduct track grounds, and about 0.6 miles from Resorts World NYC.

What to Order Before Aqueduct Racetrack

Pre-order ahead of your visit to Resorts World NYC on our menu and choose pickup. Orders are typically ready in 15 to 30 minutes. Every product is lab-tested under NY OCM standards.

The grounds no longer host races, and Resorts World NYC on the same lot sets its own rules, so budtenders at our Ozone Park shop typically steer shoppers toward low-dose edibles, beverages, and 510 cartridges that are easy to portion before or after a day out. If you plan to visit Resorts World, stick to discreet, sealed packaging and keep everything factory-closed until you are off venue property.

Queens shoppers heading to Resorts World tend to gravitate toward sealed, low-dose, pickup-friendly products that match a long day out. The selection below reflects what budtenders at Terp Bros Ozone Park move most often for Aqueduct-area customers, and every item on our shelves is lab-tested under NY OCM standards.

  • Pre-rolls for on-the-go (pickup-friendly, factory-sealed)
  • Low-dose edibles (5 mg) for long events
  • THC beverages for daytime activities
  • 510 cartridges (discrete, odor-controlled)
  • Infused pre-rolls for social groups splitting a pack

Nearby Queens Neighborhoods

The Aqueduct Racetrack corridor sits at the intersection of several South Queens neighborhoods that Terp Bros NYC Ozone Park serves daily. If you live in one of these ZIP codes, pickup and same-day delivery are both available from our Cross Bay Boulevard shop for anyone 21+.

The most common questions we hear from Aqueduct-area shoppers involve venue rules, subway travel with product, and whether Terp Bros has any formal tie to the former track or Resorts World. Here are the straight answers.

Is it legal to consume at the former Aqueduct Racetrack grounds? Cannabis consumption rules vary by venue. Most public-park and landmark policies mirror the NYC Smoke-Free Air Act, which restricts smoking on property. See Where You Can Smoke.

Can I bring my purchase to the former Aqueduct Racetrack grounds? Sealed, unopened packages generally fall under normal possession rules (up to 3 ounces of flower or 24 grams of concentrate). Venue-specific bag checks can apply wherever you go.

Does Terp Bros sponsor or partner with Aqueduct or Resorts World? No. Terp Bros NYC is an independent CAURD-licensed dispensary operating under NY OCM License OCM-CAURD-23-000020 (Astoria) / OCM-CAURD-25-000294 (Ozone Park). We provide practical information for customers who happen to be visiting the area, and we do not receive any compensation from NYRA or Resorts World.

What First-Time Queens Shoppers Should Know About the Aqueduct Racetrack Route

First-time visitors heading to the Aqueduct area can plan pickup timing and venue entry ahead of time, and every product on our menu is lab-tested under NY OCM standards before it reaches the shelf.

The first rule: bring valid government-issued ID showing you are 21 or older. That applies at the dispensary door and at the Resorts World gaming floor. The second rule: order on the menu before you leave home, because pickup is typically ready in 15 to 30 minutes. Third, respect the Smoke-Free Air Act. Casino floors and dining areas are non-smoking. If you want to enjoy your purchase, do it off-property before or after the visit and never in a vehicle you are driving. Fourth, keep everything factory-sealed until you are home. Seal integrity is what keeps you compliant with the 3-ounce personal-possession ceiling and what keeps venue security uninterested in your bag.

How the Aqueduct Racetrack Corridor Compares Across Queens Neighborhoods

The Aqueduct corridor is a South Queens landmark route, which makes it different from the 7-train Citi Field path or the N/W train into Astoria Park. Understanding that difference shapes how you choose between pickup and delivery from Terp Bros NYC.

Compared with a Citi Field game day, where most shoppers arrive on the 7 train and a walk-first plan makes sense, the Aqueduct area is mostly a driving area. Cross Bay Boulevard is the backbone; the A train is secondary. Compared with a UBS Arena trip on the LIRR, where Elmont Station is the natural transit node, the Aqueduct area favors drivers on the Van Wyck or the Belt Parkway. Compared with MoMA PS1 or the Astoria cultural loop, the Aqueduct corridor is less walkable, so pickup at our Ozone Park shop almost always beats walking between venues. The practical takeaway: if you are heading to Resorts World, plan the Terp Bros stop on the way in and walk into the casino with everything already handled.

What Budtenders Hear Most About the Aqueduct Route to Terp Bros

Budtenders at our Ozone Park shop field the same handful of questions from Aqueduct-area shoppers every weekend. Sharing the answers up front saves time at the counter and helps you build a better cart before your trip, and every product you pick up is lab-tested under NY OCM standards.

The most common question is about timing: how long does pickup take? Our window is 15 to 30 minutes and we send a confirmation text the moment your order is packed. The second question is about low-dose options that will not derail a long afternoon. Budtenders consistently recommend 2.5 mg to 5 mg edibles, single-serve THC beverages, or a single 0.5 g pre-roll split between two people. The third question is about bringing sealed product onto venue property; the legal answer is that factory-sealed packages under the personal-possession ceiling travel with you, but on-property consumption is not allowed, and venue security can refuse entry on their own rules. The fourth question is about delivery. Delivery from Terp Bros Ozone Park is free on every order over $100, and the cannabis delivery page shows the minimum for your ZIP. The fifth question is about whether our store is actually legal; the answer is straightforward: Terp Bros NYC operates under NY OCM License OCM-CAURD-23-000020 (Astoria) / OCM-CAURD-25-000294 (Ozone Park), every unit on the shelf is lab-tested, and the BioTrack logs are kept on file.
