Las Vegas Sands is not messing around with its proposed New York casino on Long Island.
According to a zoning application filed in the Town of Hempstead, Sands intends to build over 3.7 million square feet of development above ground, another 3.9 million square feet for parking and garages and more than 765,000 square feet of underground space.
But the big number, according to the application: 396,726 – the proposed square footage for the actual Sands NY casino.
If approved by officials, the community and ultimately state regulators, that would make Sands New York the third-largest casino in the US and among the biggest in the world.
