The idea of the project would be to revitalize the entire area around the legendary Citi Field stadium, and transform the region into a place of leisure and entertainment. Furthermore, everything indicates that the venture will have the support of Hard Rock Internationala company that has several hotels, resorts and casinos, spread across different countries around the world.
If the project really goes ahead, the expectation is that the resort/casino will become a landmark of community development, which will provide tourists and residents of New York with an important leisure option.
It is worth noting that, as previously mentioned, Cohen is the owner of the New York Mets, and the team plays its games at Citi Field, which has the capacity to house 42 thousand fans. If the US$8 billion project goes ahead, Cohen’s expectation is that the stadium’s surroundings will become a destination for visitors to New York, and establishments in the region will be open year-round, rather than only during baseball season. To receive public support to move forward with the proposal, Cohen claims that at least 15,000 permanent jobs will be created, and this increase in jobs should encourage the development of the Queens region.
Furthermore, Cohen points out that their project is not focused on creating just one more entertainment option for New York, as they must also invest in sustainability and improving the quality of life of the city’s inhabitants. To achieve this, the project will feature green areas, seafront, connection to local parks, and infrastructure for sports. Not to mention the bars and restaurants, which must offer affordable and local cuisine, also promoting community events in the new space. These measures therefore reinforce a commitment that Cohen has adopted in recent years, to foster sustainable and inclusive growth in the Queens region.
What about casinos in Brazil?
While the United States could gain another resort with a majestic integrated casino in the coming years and generate thousands of jobs, in addition to promoting tourism, in Brazil, the return of casinos to the country is still being discussed. On Tupiniquim soil, casinos were banned from operating in 1946, and since then, it has been discussed quite frequently in political circles whether this ban should be overturned or not.
With the growing popularity of the sports betting and online casino industry, the Brazilian government was no longer able to ignore this market, and realizing the sector’s revenue potential, it has already started voting on a bill that should regulate the niche.
