Related Companies’ plan to build a ritzy casino in Hudson Yards may go bust.
Two state lawmakers — including one who will vote on granting the downstate casino licenses — have spoken out against Related’s proposal to build a $12 billion complex featuring an 80-story tower with a gaming facility and hotel near the High Line pedestrian park.
“Aside from the fact that I don’t believe that we need a casino to attract people, the renderings that have thus far been presented are overlarge,” Assemblymember Deborah Glick, who represents the area on the southern portion of the High Line, told Commercial Observer.
