Ye but if you realize that if they build this possible a building boom could emerge along the water front.

They might build another Slot House on the riverfront...we'll never see walkable riverfront with condo's, hotels, townhouses, etc...no one will want to live next to a slot house.
Can you imagine a neon "SUGARHOUSE" sign next the Ben Franklin Bridge? My god, I cringe.
Most of my distaste comes from the lazy lingo regarding "tax revenue." Bring companies here, cut taxes, and create jobs. Slot revenue is a failed stop gap.

I don't want to start an anti-casino rant...I'm just concerned about our city. We're not a savvy bunch and my fear is that this endeavor will cripple the momentum we have going for us right now.
