The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board has awarded a Category 4 gaming license to Stadium Casino Westmoreland RE LLC, an affiliate of Stadium Casino LLC, for its Live! Casino Pittsburgh project. Stadium Casino LLC is owned by Principals of The Cordish Companies.
Live! Casino Pittsburgh will feature 750 slots and electronic table games, approximately 30 live action table games, nationally-recognised restaurants and live entertainment venues. The Live! facility will be part of the popular 1.3-million-square-foot Westmoreland Mall development, located directly off Route 30, approximately 30 miles from downtown Pittsburgh.
The Project is expected to generate $188 Million in annual economic impact, with an additional $148 Million in economic impact from construction, including approximately 960 direct and indirect construction jobs, plus approximately 500 permanent new jobs for local and regional residents.
“We’re very excited and honored to have been awarded the license by the Gaming Control Board and thank them for their consideration. We look forward to working with State and local officials, and the entire community as we move forward with development of a true world-class destination that will attract people from throughout the region for a unique gaming and entertainment experience,” Joe Weinberg, Managing Partner of The Cordish Companies said.
In addition to the Pittsburgh market, a new Live! Casino and Hotel is currently under construction in the City of Philadelphia, in the heart of the Stadium District.
In a related matter during the hearing, Stadium Casino, LLC, also received its Category 2 license renewal from the Board for the Philadelphia project.
