I would have said apartments, but wouldn’t it be odd to have an apartment building in Times Square?  Regardless, the city needs to side with Broadway, and shut this down.  The company who built the hotel and raised the Palace, they could have done all of that with this property, and left the Palace alone.

Broadway is not uniformly against this. The League is against it, but AEA is not, for instance.

Well it’s members are against it. Maybe the league can get the nypd to come out against the casino.

Stop bumping old threads. If there was notable development on any of this stuff, it would be news.

Things are ratcheting up in the casino war.  The alliance of theatrical stage employees comes out against the casino.  How on earth did actors equity get on board with this?

They say they’ll spend 250 million bucks in neighborhood investment to support Times Square and Hell’s Kitchen communities if they win the license.

AEA and AFM are both in support of the casino. Probably because the casino said they would hire AEA performers and AFM musicians.

Well, maybe they will hire them indeed, but I still think that there are other places where you can build a casino.

 

Times Square is one of the most popular and crowded places, so I'm not surprised that it was chosen. A lot of tourists visit it every day, and it's for sure it will be very profitable to have a casino there. But I think it will be very crowded and noisy, and not everyone likes it. I play casino games from time to time, but I play them online. I can recommend one site where I usually play, and you can See everything that is offered there yourself. The games you can play, or the bonuses you can get. And there I can find everything I like. The experience is great, and there is no need to go somewhere to play. I can just stay at home and enjoy.
