The latest in luxury resorts will have a 100,000 square foot casino, as large as the MGM Grand and larger than its neighbor across the strip, Planet Hollywood. What it will not have is a poker room.

Harrah’s buys down debt of Foxwoods in Philly

Harrah's seems to be writing down debt all over the place.
Last year, they picked up $140 million of Planet Hollywood's debt and then acquired them a few months later.
Next on their debt list is $52.3 million of Foxwoods in South Philadelphia.
This is the same project that Steve Wynn looked likely to take over but then abandoned.
Las Vegas loses to… Pennsylvania?
Posted by clark | Posted in Las Vegas Business News, Las Vegas Gaming, Las Vegas History, Las Vegas News Blog, Pokerstars, R.C. Clark | Posted on 27-07-2010
Yep, it was bound to happen, but perhaps the bounds didn't have to be broken so fast. In the form of taxes collected from gaming revenue, in the fiscal year that ended on June 30, Pennsylvania has now beaten Las Vegas by almost 35 percent... $1.1 billion vs. $831 million. Even Indiana (which much of Chicago visits, primarily the Harrah's Horseshoe in Hammond, IN.) beat out our fine neon city at $878 million in tax revenue. Even in this economy, gambling is here to stay. It's just that tourists would rather stay in their backyard than visit Las Vegas.
