(A rustic iron horse sculpture is one of the art pieces recently added to the LTS Library.)

Editors Note:

TheLouisville Thoroughbred Societyis now entering the home stretch. And, it is beginning to feel a lot like home, too.

The final touches of paint are being added each day.

The trim work is being fitted.

The name plates are being attached to the restroom doors.

The barn doors that separate the LTS Library and Diner rooms have now been hung.

The betting stands which will host the stand-alone, self-service terminals have now been relocated to the LTS Main Floor. On Monday, the tote equipment will start to be installed.

The chandeliers are being adorned with crystal spirals.

And, the hand-made, Spanish Cedar Humidor has now been completely trimmed out and the moisturizing system has been installed.

Over the next three weeks, construction work on the LTS Cigar Pavilion, the Diner and the Outdoor Terrace will be completed and the facility will be ready for its opening the first of August.

It has been an amazing project over the past 4 years. There have been good days and tough ones, to be sure. ButThe LouisvilleThoroughbred Societyis entering the home stretch. We are kicking for home and the wire. We are gaing on the finish line each and every day.

Starting next week, we will be hosting a series of Sneak Peaks. Contact our Director of Membership, Hayley Amoss, and set up your time to come and get a first-hand look.

We know one thing. We will pass the eye test.

The building is remarkable.

The interior design is amazing.

The look and feel are home.

We are about ready for you.
