I am curious to see what others think of the casino. I've never personally been interested in going, and I find it to be a pretty dead and quiet area of the waterfront. But I do know some folks who enjoy going and is the main reason they end up downtown.

Well, I've never been much of a gambler, but I went a few times years ago for kicks, but only played the slots. I found it boring after awhile, giving my money to a machine for little in return. Won a small amount once or twice, but still not very exciting, so the "casino" part of it is of little interest to me. I don't care much for the card games, roulette, etc., either. I will say, though, that it always seemed to be at least moderately busy.
On the other hand, I've attended many concerts there, even though the venue isn't the greatest, but have seen many good bands there. I would consider that aspect a loss, as Halifax seems to be short on good small/mid-sized venues for concerts that are too big for a bar but too small for the Scotiabank Centre, or even the Cohn.
