2008 Eastside
Cannery Casino To Open August 28 Despite a
nationwide slowdown in the gaming industry, Cannery
Casino Resorts (CCR) will open its second
Casino
in little more than a year - the Eastside Cannery
Casino and Hotel - on Thursday, August
28. The first major
casino to open on the east side of Las Vegas in
more than a decade, will officially welcome guests
at 8pm. Located in the
Boulder Highway gaming corridor, the $250 million
Eastside Cannery Casino & Hotel features a
16-story tower of bronze, glass and steel, with a
distinctive saw-tooth roofline, making an iconic
impression. The opening will take place a little
more than a year after CCR opened a successful
temporary casino at The Meadows Racetrack &
Casino in Washington, Pennsylvania. Construction is
on schedule for the opening of The Meadows' $175
million state-of-the-art permanent casino in the
spring of 2009. "Cannery Casino
Resorts has been able to move forward during these
uncertain times with projects such as the Eastside
Cannery because we surround ourselves with talented
people who have passion for their craft and are
among the most talented in the world at what they
do," said CCR Principal William Wortman. "Eastside
Cannery is a reflection of that passion and our
ongoing vision and commitment to providing the best
service for our clientele. Given the state of our
current economy, I cannot say enough about the work
our construction and design team did to build this
incredible facility on time and on
budget." "We take great
pride in providing a first-class casino to the
local Las Vegas market, but we take even greater
pride in the jobs we create for hard-working local
families," said fellow CCR Principal William
Paulos. "Close to 500 local construction jobs were
created and 800 family-sustaining jobs were created
by Eastside Cannery are welcome news as our region
endures some of the toughest times in recent
memory." Guests will enjoy
a casino that features more than 2,100 of the very
latest and most popular Slot
Games, 26
table games, a 450-seat Bingo
hall, live keno lounge, a first-class
Poker
Room and
a Race and Sports Book. |
