It’s now just Mohegan Sun Pocono, and the racing oval is officially The Downs at Mohegan Sun Pocono. The tribe initially renamed the property Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs, then dropped the track name entirely. The track remains an attraction, but the updated branding highlights a shift toward casino gambling. A 238-room hotel tower followed in 2013, making the property a full-fledged resort casino. The tribe purchased the property for $280 million in 2005 with the plan of converting it into a racino. That plan became a reality when slots were installed the following year, and table gameswere added in 2010.
