Dover Downs Going South This Winter
Dover Downs has joined in the fight to bring casino style video lottery gambling to Atlanta’s Underground. The area has been going downhill for some time and the developer thinks gambling is just the thing to bring it back to life.
I have visited Atlanta Underground before and found it pleasant with the exception of the panhandlers.
Here is the news from Casino Gambling Web:
Dover Downs Gaming and Entertainment Inc. is the Delaware company who has joined the fight. They believe they can change the whole landscape of Underground Atlanta with the new form of gambling.
The gambling would take place using video lottery terminals, but the grand plan is on a much bigger scale. The group has already shown the Georgia Lottery Board their proposal which also includes a hotel and entertainment complex.
The projected revenue increase for the state could be something the Gaming Board will be interested in. They believe that the casino could bring in millions of dollars a year in tax revenue.
