Publicly published reference sources also describe the site as Yonkers Raceway & Empire City Casino; property figures and ownership can change over time, so venue details should be read as documented reference information rather than a live operations feed.

Documented venue facts at this location

The article topic here is place rather than play, so the key point is scale and identity: this is a large, long-established gambling venue in Yonkers. Ownership and operating arrangements can change through sales, leases, and management agreements, so readers should treat any business-structure detail as something to confirm on the property’s own contact or corporate information pages before making plans.

How to read these mileage figures
A straight-line distance is useful because it is stable and comparable: it is the same measurement method whether the reference point is Manhattan, Boston, Chicago, or Los Angeles. It shows geographic separation, not the route a traveler would follow on streets, bridges, tunnels, rail lines, or flight paths.
That difference matters especially in the northeastern United States. Water crossings, constrained urban road networks, indirect approach paths, local street patterns, and crossings between state jurisdictions can all make the real route longer than the straight-line figure. Terrain and the shape of the road grid matter elsewhere too, but even short straight-line distances in dense metro areas can convert into significantly longer actual routes.
For that reason, the table should be read as a map-based orientation tool. If you need the real route from your own starting point, the reliable method is to place the venue coordinates into a mapping service and measure from your exact origin on the day you plan to travel.
Regional position in context
The coordinate pair places the venue in southeastern New York State. The source text adds that the complex is near the New York City border, which helps explain why the documented straight-line figure to NYC and to Manhattan is 16.0 miles.
The shorter published pairings in this set, such as Philadelphia at 95.4 straight-line miles, Atlantic City at 111.5 straight-line miles, Rehoboth Beach Delaware at 164.8 straight-line miles, Boston at 175.9 straight-line miles, Lake George at 173.5 straight-line miles, and Syracuse at 188.0 straight-line miles, show the venue’s placement within the broader northeastern corridor. Longer figures to cities such as Chicago at 715.6 straight-line miles, Atlanta at 760.4 straight-line miles, Miami at 1107.4 straight-line miles, Dallas at 1382.2 straight-line miles, Denver at 1632.8 straight-line miles, and Los Angeles at 2452.4 straight-line miles show the same fixed point at a national scale.
What this article can and cannot measure
This article can report only the documented straight-line pairs listed above. If you wanted a different origin point that is not in the published matrix, this page cannot measure that segment and should not guess it.
That matters because readers often want a practical route answer rather than a geometric one. The honest boundary is simple: this page can anchor the venue in Yonkers, New York, provide its coordinates, and list the available great-circle distances, but it does not publish road mileage, transit routing, or elapsed travel time.
What to confirm before you go
Before leaving, confirm the items that can change: the property name in use, current operator branding, which entrances or facilities are active, parking arrangements, and any live venue policies. The authoritative place to check is the venue’s own official contact and visitor information pages, because those hold the current operational details this location article does not try to freeze in print.
If you are comparing your own origin to Yonkers, use the documented coordinates 40.918021, -73.86529 in a current map service. That will let you measure the real route from your exact start point instead of relying on a straight-line figure that may cross water, ignore one-way networks, or bypass state-border routing constraints.
