Silverstein Properties, Rush Street Gaming, and Greenwood Gaming and Entertainment will partner with Hyatt in its planned mixed-use casino development near Hudson Yards, the groups will announce Friday.

The Avenir, if chosen as the winner of a competitive bidding war for a casino license in New York City and approved for development, will operate under the Destination by Hyatt brand and will include 1,000 rooms and suites. The project seeks to capitalize on its proximity to the Javits Center and mix gaming, business tourism, and hospitality in one development.

Earlier plans for The Avenir revealed that developers plan to include 100 permanently affordable apartments in the development and incorporate a 1,000-seat performance hall and casino.
