The race for development around the nascent Commanders stadium has begun —and the first proposal is a big gamble.
Chatman Holdings LLC, a minority and woman-owned Pittsburgh-based real estate firm, outlined a proposal for a riverfront casino and hotel on one of the last parcels on Reservation 13 at the Nov. 18 meeting of Advisory Neighborhood Commission 7F (ANC 7F).
The proposed casino-hotel would a development including a long-sought full-service grocery store, restaurants, jobs, walkable retail, housing and year-round amenities. Landscape architect Rebecca Mizikar of PVDEDI provided an overview of the project’s layout.
The casino and hotel would provide a “revenue engine” for the larger mixed use development, stated Chatman CEO Robin L. Young (CEO). Young was joined by Chatman CFO Andrew L. Young and COO Justin L. Young (COO).
