Simon Thomas, Executive Chairman of London’s Hippodrome Casino, [in a Linkedin post on Wednesday] has called for Leicester Square to be officially recognized as the English capital’s casino quarter.
He believes that the density of the casino entertainment on offer in Leicester Square, which alongside the Hippodrome includes the Empire, Horizon, Rialto and the imminent Trocadero Casino, which is being developed by Genting, it’s time for Leicester Square to be properly recognised as London’s Casino Quarter.
Genting is currently transforming part of the historic London Trocadero into a new entertainment and leisure venue, featuring a casino, restaurants, and bars. This development aims to revitalize approximately 37,000sq.ft of currently vacant space within the Grade II-listed building on Coventry Street.
