USA – MGM se otevře ve Springfieldu 24. srpna
By Phil - 26. dubna 2018
Having been linked to the possible purchase of Wynn Boston Harbour, which would force MGM to offload its interest in the soon-to-open MGM Springfield, the Las Vegas-based operator has been keen to move forward with the Massachusetts casino licence it actually does own and confirm its opening date.
MGM said it remained focussed on ‘expanding its presence on the East Coast,’ announcing it would open the doors to MGM Springfield, New England’s first integrated luxury resort and entertainment destination, on August 24, 2018.
Casino laws in Massachusetts state that operators can only own one casino. Whilst the rumours of its interest in Wynn Boston Harbour won’t go away, MGM has confirmed that Springfield’s first casino will have the MGM brand above its doors when they open.
„MGM Springfield, který je důkazem desetileté spolupráce mezi City of Springfield a MGM Resorts, vzdá hold dědictví města a oslaví jeho světlou budoucnost a zároveň představí hvězdnou řadu pohostinských a zábavních zážitků, které přilákají hosty z Nové Anglie a dále,“ řekl Michael Mathis, prezident MGM Springfield. "Jsme neuvěřitelně hrdí na to, že můžeme uvést to, o čem věříme, že se stane přední zábavní destinací regionu a sehraje roli ve vzrušující renesanci Springfieldu."
Mayor Domenic J. Sarno said: “I look forward to working with MGM Springfield for many years to come. They’re a world-class company and an outstanding corporate citizen. I deeply appreciate their belief and investment in our Springfield. I wish them continued success as we create another ‘Springfield first!’”
MGM Springfield si připomene bohatou historii města prostřednictvím zachování a přepracování jeho nejposchoďovanějších budov. Místní obyvatelé a turisté mohou zažít místa, jako je First Spiritualist Church, Springfield Armory a Chandler Union Hotel – kde bydleli prezidenti Polk a Buchanan – zcela novým způsobem.
The boutique-style five-story hotel will feature 250 eclectic guestrooms inspired by the historic significance, iconic architecture and literary legacy of its urban surroundings. Each space is punctuated by details such as quotations from the works of Emily Dickinson and whimsical Merriam-Webster-inspired works of art.
MGM Springfield will offer an array of new-to-market food and beverage spots, the 8,000-seat MassMutual Center entertainment venue for large-scale conventions, a Topgolf Swing Suite, an eight-screen movie theater complex; 10-lane bowling center; serene spa; and an 8,000-square-foot pool situated within a terraced rooftop garden.
It will also be home to an expansive 125,000-square-foot gaming floor will feature approximately 2,550 slot machines, 120 gaming tables, a poker room and high-limit VIP gaming area for a variety of experiences.
