Horseless Carriages Take Over Street Outside the Racetrack 

While Union Avenue is typically known for horses, it was the horseless carriages on display this past weekend as Cars on Union took over the street. 

The annual event took place between Nelson and East Avenues on Union — right in front of The National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame and the Saratoga Racetrack. Cars from across the northeast took part with awards handed out at the end for best in show. 

The event was sponsored by the Saratoga Automobile Museum. 2025 was the third iteration of the event which started in 2023. It comes as the Museum had to cancel its Spring Auto show due to wet weather which rained out two events. 

Cars of all kinds were on display. From sleek sports cars to boxy SUVs and everything in between. The cars came from all over the world with American muscle side by side with the best from Europe and Aisa. While an American Chevy Corvette had the judge’s eye — winning top honors — it was a British frogged eyed Austin-Healey that captured the people and won the people’s choice vote. Other honors went to a BMW sedan and a right-hand drive Nissan Skyline — among others.
