A casino gaming operator with various brands in Las Vegas and Kentucky hopes to build a new gaming hall at the former Sears at Pheasant Lane Mall after acquiring two smaller operations in the Gate City.
The hall will feature historic horse racing machines, which was approved in New Hampshire two years ago.
ECL Entertainment along with Clairvest, a Toronto-based private equity firm, bought the Lucky Moose Casino and Tavern and The River Casino & Sports Bar, to allow them to build a “leading gaming operation in Southern New Hampshire.”
The proposed gaming hall is expected to be called “The Mint,” according to plans submitted with the city.
