You’ve got me questioning if I’m real. Way too deep for a Thursday morning after a long drive back from Philadelphia

Not a bot, just a lurker and new season ticket holder as of this year. lol. Real dude living in the Bronx.
Welcome but to prove you're not a bot (as they've gotten very crafty recently): What's the traditional welcome greeting of those in the Bronx?
Not a bot. Welcome to the Forums!
I should have known, but listen, if you start telling me about some black market pills or a gambling site, we're relaunching this investigation. Got it?
NYCFC fans excited to soon get permanent home in Queens: ‘Just natural’

The Public Design Commission conditionally approved the stadium design on Monday and the Queens Borough Board approved the business terms of the development last night.
That's all for the good. Turning parkland into a casino was always an incredible longshot.
Now what they need to do is turn the parkland back into parkland. No need for acres of asphalt instead of a few garages surrounded by open space.

Here's something to consider: the big casinos on the Strip profile differently than the casinos in downtown Las Vegas in terms of their functional economics:
Anyway, I've been wondering whether the project would get over were it to be just the Hard Rock Hotel, the concert venue, a locally owned restaurant row and maybe some smaller entertainment venues, rather than a casino.
I have no idea if the math would work from Cohen's perspective. Strategically, I can definitely see a planned entertainment district on the site rather than an attempt at creating some kind of gambler's mecca, especially considering what CFG and Related are doing in the Iron Triangle. The National Tennis Center is right there, too.
But of course, it's not my money.
There will be four event/concert venues (as of planned for now) in the area:
1. Citi Field
2. Citi Field parking lot
3. Arthur Ashe Stadium
4. Naming Rights Sponsor Stadium
Right. I was talking indoor, all year, all-weather. I think that's the Cohen proposal, at any rate. And the smaller venues would be for lesser-known acts: bars, jazz joints, coffeehouses, that sort of thing, which I'm not sure about. But it would fit into an entertainment district.
I was just curious has there been an unofficial “they need to shovel in the ground to meet the 2027 date.”. It looks like, maybe, from what I think, is midfield to 35th street still has chop shops. That remediation should take a year or two. I have no experience so I am just guessing.
