MGM Mirage Appears to Re-Enter New York Casino Competition
The gaming promoter has once again set its wandering intuition on promising new projects, involving the development of what would be New York City’s only casino,that will manage the following betting systems of betting blackjack,betting poker and betting roulette.
After outliving weeks teetering on the edge of bankruptcy for either itself or its gigantic City Center project, MGM Mirage has succeeded to move a couple steps from the steep cliff, and is feeling its oats.
MGM Mirage dropped out of a bidding procedure to run a casino to be placed at Aqueduct Racetrack two years ago, when suspensions stalled the process and MGM Mirage’s liquidness bad dream was just beginning. However, the slow advance on the project finds bidding still ongoing, and a real estate developer says MGM is part of his company’s bid.
Political fights have held up the Aqueduct gambling complex from moving forward since its approval by the state almost a decade ago. Now, six confidential bids to build and operate the gaming facility have been received by Governor David Paterson, who says at least one is “a persuasive bid.”
R. Donahue Peebles said he, MGM, and Harbinger Capital Partners had merged to place a bid. Peebles said if his offer is received, the casino would be called the MGM Grand at Aqueduct.
