By: Robert Diamond Aug. 02, 2013
PHILADELPHIA, PA - On Tuesday, August 6, 2013, PHL Local Gaming, LLC, one of six bidders for the available casino gaming license, in Philadelphia, will host a tour of the 25-acre Procacci Brothers Sales Corporation site upon which its proposed Casino Revolution property would be situated. As part of the proceedings, PHL Local Gaming will invite members of the media inside its Plant 5 warehouse, the specific structure in which the casino will be housed.
PHL Local Gaming officials will then present a floor plan of the existing structure and nine all-new, architectural renderings of the proposed property. They will also provide details on how the Gaming Control Board's selection of PHL Local Gaming, as the Category 2 licensee in Philadelphia, would generate 600 new jobs and $52 million in state and municipal revenues, six months earlier than its five competitors can do so.
If successful in its bid for the available casino management license in Philadelphia, PHL Local Gaming LLC plans to open "Casino Revolution," a $428 million, four-star quality, "destination-caliber," 250-room hotel and gaming facility. The casino will offer 2400 slots, 105 table games, a steak house, a coffee/espresso bar, an Italian restaurant, a 300-seat buffet, a 156-seat cafe and a covered, 1600-car garage. The facility would be located at Front and Pattison Streets, in South Philadelphia.
