Waterloo’s ‘eyesore’ is coming down. The National Cattle Congress and the Sac and Fox Tribe of the Mississippi (Meskwaki Nation) had been feuding in court over the property’s ownership. In a news release Sunday morning, officials with Deer Creek Development announced a three-way agreement to demolish the Waterloo Greyhound Park, beginning this month, after the facility sat defunct and decaying for nearly 20 years. As part of the deal, Deer Creek will acquire Greyhound Park’s 64-acres with plans to use the land for anything from “restaurants and retail to a hotel and a convention center.” Specifics weren’t immediately released.
