Most people just go into casinos for fun anyway. Most people don’t go in expecting to hit the jackpot.

I'm a tad upset that New Jersey did not authorize a Northern Jersey casino a few years back. One was proposed in Jersey City at Liberty State Park (with a 95-storey hotel) and another in the Meadowlands. The idea was to build one before Manhattan. It would have been a huge tourist draw. Now that's a lost cause because no one is going to Jersey to gamble when there is a casino in the heart of Manhattan. A lot of potential tax dollars and economic revenue for New Jersey lost for New York's benefit due to the dithering and this misguided belief that Atlantic City will make a comeback somehow. With a Manhattan casino, Atlantic City is going to fade away into the Ocean as far as gaming relevancy. |

The new Sin City? Gov. Kathy Hochul could FAST TRACK approval for three new casinos in NYC-area aimed at wealthy gamblers within days - including a 'Monaco-style gambling den atop Saks Fifth Avenue'
The governor and Dem leaders are expected to hammer out a deal that could see a casino for high rollers atop the famous shopping location The deal would allow gaming licenses to be rushed through as part of the state's budget at a price tag of $1billion Currently, only three of the state's 25 casinos are 'downstate' - one in Queens, one in Yonkers and a third on Long Island The betting companies have spent about $300,000 a month to try and bring the casinos to Manhattan The Hotel and Gaming Trades Council, who endorsed Hochul's re-election bid, are also lobbying hard The union has given over $880,000 in campaign contributions to Democrats in Albany since 2020 Eric Adams' chief of staff Frank Carone recently met with Robert Goldstein, the CEO of Las Vegas Sands. Adams wants at least two of the three licenses to go to New York City https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...Manhattan.html |
New Jersey had a chance at capturing some of the Manhattan gaming market, but politicians wanted to keep the Atlantic City monopoly on life support. Looks like New York is being smart and will capture all that gaming revenue. I don't know who visits Atlantic City to gamble, but I'm thinking one or two casinos in Manhattan is going to cut into their market share.
New York City is the greatest city in the world and that should include being able to legally pay a game of blackjack or Texas Hold'em poker if I'm so inclined to spend my money on that entertainment. That stupid so-called casino in Queens doesn't count. |
This is why there needs to be term limits at all levels. When people stay in positions of power for too long, they start to feel like their personal feelings and opinions are the only things that matter, loyal subjects be damned.

The issue with a Manhattan casino is that to have a good casino you need big floorplates, and that would be a hard site to find in Manhattan. Something in Times Sq or Herald Sq would be fairly small and crappy. Even the current Resorts World in Queens is fairly "meh", even though I hear they are making tons of money.
I am also surprised none of the official proposals are floating Coney Island, I think it would be a great spot there as well. |

Says who? Just because suburban campus casinos are set up like this doesn't mean that a tighter urban casino with plenty of vertical circulation couldn't be just as successful. |
