he abandoned dog track is located in Black Canyon City, Arizona. This was opened in 1967; it was a race track for greyhounds (dog) by the Funk family. The family continued to run this track with dogs until it was closed in 1982, and eventually became abandoned in the late 1980s. By the way, Funk Family, their name is really unique, don’t you think so?
ブラック・キャニオン・グレーハウンド・パークは、アリゾナ州、ブラック・キャニオンシティにある犬のレース場の廃墟。1967年にファンク一家という家族がオープンしました。1982年まで実際にレースは行われていたらしく、1980年代の後半に閉鎖されたそうです。どうでもいいですが、ファンクファミリーってすごい名前だなと思うのは私だけか?

Today, the Black Canyon Greyhound Park is totally abandoned. The place is open wide, so there are no specific instructions on how to get access to the abandoned places. Just concrete building still standing on open land, this situation was lonely atmosphere, and the buildings inside and outside is threatening to finally take over the graffiti-strewn and vandalized wall. When I saw the first pictures of this place there were painted ‘DOG RACK’ on the building wall. Now, The characters were blacked out for some reason…. Why? It was little disappointed because I had thought it is charm point.
今日では、ブラックキャニオングレイハウンドパークは完全に廃墟と化しています。ひらけた土地に、コンクリートの四角い建物がポツンとあるのみ。以前はその建物に’DOG RACK’とでかでかとペイントされてあったんですが、なぜかすべて塗りつぶされ消えていました….。それが結構かっこよかったのになあ…目立つから消してしまたのか…残念。

Inside, a breeding ground for graffiti and vandalism…and all the equipment has been stolen. As you can see, the floor is littered with papers, garbage and audience seats scattered everywhere. It’s the kind of place your mother may have told you were a child to avoid 😀
内部は落書きや破壊行為の温床になっているため、ゴミや客席だらけでほとんどの物は盗まれています。子供のころにお母さんが「あんな場所に行っちゃいけません!」と言いそうな典型的な場所でした。




Among other graffitis, this gas mask graffiti is similar to my brother… We separated a long time ago, And this graffiti remind me him… I wonder if he is doing well…
数ある落書きの中で、ガスマスクのグラフィティがすごく目立っていました。このグラフィティは、私の行き別れた弟にすごく似ています…どこかで元気にしているといいんですが…


The race track is located form the front of the stand immediately in front of mine. Once dogs had been fought to a race on here… I wasn’t able to perceive the race courses atmosphere. because The race track has recovered the desert plants.
かつて犬たちがレースを繰り広げいたレーストラックは、観客席の正面に位置していますが、今では、砂漠植物が生い茂り、肉眼ではトラックを確認することはできません。
