Video Previews $12 Billion Wynn New York City Casino ProposalState’s Bidding Process For Casino Licensing Continues |

The New York City casino licensing process is seemingly never-ending, but has offered residents of the Empire State a look at some interesting concepts as gaming companies and developers release their plans. That includes a recent video proposal of the project planned for the Hudson Yards area in Manhattan.
A new video was released showing what residents could expect from the $12 billion casino project. The plan includes a 5.6 acre park and plenty of green spaces.
“The animated rendering of the ambitious Manhattan project by Related Companies and Wynn Resorts is partly aimed at countering opposition from advocates of the High Line park and other critics who claim the plan would be too intrusive and obstruct views,” the New York Post reports.
Details On The Project
The video shows walkways and space around an 80-story tower with a 1,7000-room hotel and casino. Area roadways and the Hudson River waterfront is also featured as part of the casino surroundings.
Along with the hotel and casino, the tower would include shops and restaurants located at street levels. Plans also call for office buildings, apartment towers, and the park to be known as Hudson Green.

“The next phase of Hudson Yards is a $12 billion investment in New York’s future that, if approved by City and State officials, will create tens of thousands of jobs, 1,500 units of housing including hundreds of new affordable apartments, and billions in much-needed revenue for the city and state,” Related Companies CEO Jeff Blau said.
Whether the casino becomes a reality remains to be seen. The bidding process for a New York City casino license is expected to stretch into next year and a bill to speed up the process recently died after Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) didn’t sign it.
