“The Coney Island Casino is going to help revitalize an area in desperate need of a boost, and we are looking forward to sharing our vision for a year-round entertainment venue that’s going to create jobs and economic growth with the community and the rest of New York,” Thor COO Melissa Gliatta said in a statement.
In addition to a gaming floor, there will be a roller coaster, an indoor water park, hotels and museums.
Thor partnered with Saratoga Casino Holdings, the Chickasaw Nation and Legends to build a $3 billion facility on 5 acres between Stillwell Avenue, West 12th Street, Surf Avenue and Wonder Wheel Way. SEE ALSO: Sun Hill Plans 400-Room Expansion at Hilton Universal in Los Angeles
