ahhh good old Buffalo BS.

Just when it looked like there was a draw down to that area too.

grain elevators

ugh… not again :picard:

the citizens for a better buffalo are a bunch of bone heads. I’m willing to bet probably un-employed and bitch about taxes all while voting the same politicians in over and over again

lol this city’s comical. What this time? We didn’t say “Simon Says”?

Poltics may slow it down but i think it will get built anyways.

have you ever been in the temporary one? it’s really sad. It’s just a bunch of poor people pissing away their money.

HAHAHAHA this sounds hilarious. Meet?

This city sucks so bad its pathetic

Can we point and laugh?

this is what keeps casinos open.

ever been to atlantic city? or even vegas to an extent?

In June 2006, the Senecas unveiled designs for a $125 million permanent casino, then upped the ante in October 2007 with blueprints for a $333 million casino complex. It’s billed as the largest privately-funded construction project in Buffalo’s history.

Plans call for a 22-story, 206 suite hotel tower, to complement a 90,000-square-foot casino, with 2,000 slot machines and some 45 table games. The complex would also house four restaurants, a spa and include a 2,500-vehicle parking deck.

The facility is expected to employ more than 1,000 and generate some $7 million a year in revenues to the host community. Buffalo and Erie County are squabbling over each’s share.

Sounds like a great thing to sue to stop.

IB4 Dozr. (I’m pretty sure he was the one against the casino)

This ruling probably won’t mean anything. As of this morning I read that both sides where already planning on an appeal if they lost.

vegas is not poor, vegas is the farthest from poor you can get.

sure there are some people in there pissing money away, but no way is it considered poor

Do you really have to ask?

Buffalo’s decisions = the suck

thats why i said to a lesser extent.

the poories go there looking for a last chance, blah blah balh. its doesn’t happen so much on the vegas strip as it does in other places…

I’m not saying that is all that the Seneca Casino will be about, I’m just saying

They should get the Bills to move downtown then add a casino as well.
Before and after tigers, lions and red wings games they are filled with people who eat at local resturants.
The casino and the surrounding areas keep people in the area longer, spending more money.

Not like OP where people show up early, eat and drink stuff they brought and leave after the game.

Well, ain’t that some shit.

I think the casino here will be a good thing, sure NF is still a toilet but near the casino its not bad, at least here it looks better.

I don’t see this stopping. From the article, it seems like the temporary casino must stop operating, but there is still hope for legislature ruling in favor of the permanent one.

If this doesn’t happen, the people responsible should be blamed for holding Buffalo down. Lately I firmly believe that Buffalo is at the start of a comeback, and even though I may not stay in this city, I really hope it happens for the people here.

The waterfront is FINALLY starting to take shape and make changes. I love seeing the construction make progress when I drive by every day.

Hopefully logic will prevail. Fuck, it kind of has to…
