The New York State Gaming Commission voted Monday afternoon to approve three downstate casinos in New York City, granting the green light to the Metropolitan Park and Resorts World projects in Queens.
The Dec. 15 vote represents the last step in a years-long process to award three licenses to proposed developments in the New York metropolitan area and is a rubber-stamp for the proposed Hard Rock Metropolitan Park development at Citi Field and the Resorts World development in South Ozone Park in addition to the Bally’s proposal in the Bronx.
