The City Stadium was constructed in the middle of a busy industrial area east of Brownroyd Street off the main tramway route of Legrams Lane.

A railway line ran adjacent to the eastern side that carried the goods from the mills to other parts of Britain and the main industry in the immediate area was textile with dye works being particularly prominent around the stadium.

When the BGTCS disbanded in 1935 the stadium owners the (City Greyhound and Sports Club (Bradford) Ltd) became independent (unaffiliated).

An attempt to fight back was made with the owners introducing various ideas (including post racing card games) but a serious fire in 1963 caused £50,000 worth of damage and the track never recovered.

The lane that ran alongside the long-gone railway line is now the road leading to Federal Mogul called 'Greyhound Drive'.
