Maryland’s First Casino to Open Earlier Than Expected
The Hollywood Casino Perryville in Perryville, Maryland is going to be opening on September 30. This is approximately a month earlier than that of when the casino originally expected to open up.
This change in the opening date came after reports stated that the casino received support from the state Board of Public Works. The Board agreed to spend fifty million dollars to get a thousand slot machines ready for the casino.
The casino cost about ninety million dollars to build. The construction on the casino has been well ahead of schedule and was a major factor into the decision to move the opening date of the casino up to September 30. The casino will have about fifteen hundred video lottery terminals. It will be operated by Penn National and will create at least three hundred new jobs in the state.
The casino, which is going to be located off of I-95 in an area of northeast Maryland near Aberdeen, will be the first casino to open up in Maryland. It will be approximately 75,000 square feet in size. The state already has six horse racing tracks but it does not feature any other gaming options until this new casino opens up.
