Bring a modern trend to the community - we want a facelift for the entire area! You can have modern and clean lines yet still keep the character. This newest look makes it look like any other building. Doesn't look fun and intriguing.

Thank you for your comments! WCD is simply a casino directory, and as such we are not in touch with the designers. The Galesi Group have listened to feedback so far and the latest design changes, released a few weeks before your post, show some difference - for better or worse. Please stay tuned to World Casino News for updates. http://news.worldcasinodirectory.com/search/galesi We see there is a community information center opened or opening downtown. You can find contact info for the responsible firm here: http://www.galesi.com/companyProfile/contactus/contactus.aspx Community involvement has helped to shape more than one new casino, we're sure your views will be appreciated.

Hi, we'd love to know that as well but it hasn't been announced with a firm date yet to our knowledge. They are virtually assured of a license after the recommendation by the Gaming Facilities Location Board, but haven't received an actual license yet from the Gaming Commission. They have 2 full years to open the doors. We'll keep you up to date here as any news breaks!
